Ingredients

• 1 pound Pork tenderloin
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 8 ounces Cremini mushrooms
• 2 cloves Garlic cloves
• 0.5 cup Gluten-free chicken broth
• 0.5 cup Heavy cream
• 1 tablespoon Gluten-free cornstarch
• 1 teaspoon Fresh thyme leaves
• 2 tablespoons Chopped parsley

Directions

Step 1

Slice the pork tenderloin into 1-inch thick medallions and season both sides with salt and pepper.

Step 2

Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the pork medallions and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through. Remove the medallions from the skillet and set aside.

Step 3

Reduce the heat to medium and add the butter to the same skillet. Once melted, add the sliced mushrooms and cook for about 5 minutes until softened and browned.

Step 4

Add the minced garlic to the mushrooms and cook for 1 more minute until fragrant.

Step 5

Pour in the gluten-free chicken broth and scrape any brown bits from the bottom of the pan. Allow the mixture to simmer for 3 minutes.

Step 6

In a small bowl, whisk together the heavy cream and cornstarch until smooth.

Step 7

Slowly add the cream mixture to the skillet, stirring constantly. Let the sauce simmer and thicken, for about 3-4 minutes.

Step 8

Stir in the fresh thyme leaves and parsley, and season the sauce according to taste with additional salt and pepper if needed.

Step 9

Return the pork medallions to the skillet and spoon the creamy mushroom sauce over them. Cook for an additional 2 minutes to warm the pork through.

Step 10

Serve immediately, garnished with additional parsley if desired.
