Ingredients

• 1 piece (approximately 1 pound) Pork tenderloin
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons All-purpose flour
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 tablespoon Unsalted butter
• 2 tablespoons Shallots, finely chopped
• 2 cloves Garlic, minced
• 0.5 cup Chicken broth
• 0.5 cup Heavy cream
• 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
• 1 tablespoon Whole-grain mustard
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped

Directions

Step 1

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

Step 2

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

Step 3

Lightly coat each medallion with flour, shaking off the excess.

Step 4

Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the olive oil and butter, allowing the butter to melt and foam slightly.

Step 5

Place the pork medallions into the skillet in a single layer. Sear for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown. Remove the medallions from the skillet and set aside on a plate.

Step 6

In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium and add the chopped shallots. Sauté for 1-2 minutes until softened.

Step 7

Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional 30 seconds until fragrant.

Step 8

Pour in the chicken broth and use a wooden spoon to scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the skillet.

Step 9

Stir in the heavy cream, Dijon mustard, and whole-grain mustard. Simmer gently for 3-4 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken slightly.

Step 10

Return the pork medallions to the skillet, spooning the sauce over them. Cook for 2-3 minutes more, or until the pork is cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).

Step 11

Sprinkle the dish with chopped parsley and serve immediately with your choice of side dishes, such as mashed potatoes or roasted vegetables.
