Ingredients
- 2 pieces pork tenderloin
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 8 oz cremini mushrooms
- 2 garlic cloves
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 0.5 cup chicken broth
- 1 teaspoon fresh thyme
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley
Directions
Step 1
Slice each pork tenderloin into 1-inch thick medallions. Season both sides with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.
Step 2
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the pork medallions to the skillet and sear for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until they are golden brown and cooked through. Remove them from the skillet and set aside.
Step 3
In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium and add butter. Once melted, add the cremini mushrooms and sauté until they are browned, about 5 minutes.
Step 4
Add minced garlic cloves to the mushrooms and sauté for an additional 1 minute until fragrant.
Step 5
Pour in the heavy cream and chicken broth, stirring to combine. Bring to a simmer and let it reduce slightly, about 3-4 minutes.
Step 6
Stir in the fresh thyme and add the pork medallions back into the skillet, coating them with the sauce. Simmer for another 2-3 minutes to reheat the pork and meld the flavors.
Step 7
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving. Enjoy your keto-friendly meal!
