Ingredients

• 1 pound Pork tenderloin
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 2 tablespoons Butter
• 2 tablespoons All-purpose flour
• 1.5 cups Chicken broth
• 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
• 1 sprig Fresh thyme (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Season the pork tenderloin with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Rub the spices evenly onto the meat.

Step 3

Heat the olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the pork tenderloin on all sides until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes per side.

Step 4

Transfer the skillet with the pork to the preheated oven. Roast for 15-20 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C). Remove the pork from the oven, transfer it to a plate, and tent it loosely with aluminum foil to rest.

Step 5

In the same skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the flour and whisk continuously for 1-2 minutes to create a smooth roux.

Step 6

Gradually pour in the chicken broth while whisking, ensuring no lumps form. Add Worcestershire sauce and continue whisking until the gravy thickens, about 3-4 minutes.

Step 7

Taste the gravy and adjust seasonings if necessary with salt and pepper.

Step 8

Slice the rested pork tenderloin into medallions and serve with the gravy drizzled over the top.

Step 9

Garnish with fresh thyme if desired, and enjoy!
