Ingredients

• 1 lb Pork tenderloin
• 1 tsp Salt
• 0.5 tsp Ground black pepper
• 2 tbsp Olive oil
• 2 tbsp Unsalted butter
• 2 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
• 1 medium Shallot, finely chopped
• 0.5 cup Dry white wine
• 0.5 cup Chicken broth
• 0.25 cup Heavy cream
• 2 tbsp Fresh parsley, chopped

Directions

Step 1

Trim any excess fat or silver skin from the pork tenderloin. Slice the tenderloin into 1-inch thick medallions.

Step 2

Season the medallions on both sides with salt and black pepper.

Step 3

Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once the oil is shimmering, add the pork medallions in a single layer.

Step 4

Sear the medallions for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown and just cooked through. Remove them from the skillet and set aside on a plate. Cover with foil to keep warm.

Step 5

Reduce the heat to medium and add the butter to the skillet. Once melted, add the minced garlic and chopped shallot.

Step 6

Cook for 2-3 minutes until the garlic and shallot are soft and fragrant, stirring frequently to avoid burning.

Step 7

Deglaze the skillet by pouring in the white wine. Use a wooden spoon to scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan.

Step 8

Allow the wine to simmer for 2-3 minutes, reducing slightly.

Step 9

Add the chicken broth and continue to simmer for another 3-4 minutes to allow the flavors to concentrate.

Step 10

Reduce the heat to low and stir in the heavy cream. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken slightly.

Step 11

Return the pork medallions to the skillet, spooning the sauce over them. Let them warm in the sauce for 2-3 minutes.

Step 12

Garnish with fresh parsley before serving. Serve hot with your choice of side dishes, such as mashed potatoes or steamed vegetables.
