Ingredients

• 1 lb pork tenderloin
• 1 tsp salt
• 0.5 tsp black pepper
• 2 tbsp all-purpose flour
• 2 tbsp olive oil
• 1 tbsp unsalted butter
• 2 garlic cloves, minced
• 1 tsp fresh rosemary, chopped
• 0.5 cup chicken broth
• 1 tbsp balsamic vinegar
• 1 cup blackberries
• 1 tbsp honey
• 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Trim any excess fat from the pork tenderloin and slice it into 1-inch thick medallions.

Step 2

Sprinkle the pork medallions with salt and black pepper on both sides. Lightly dredge each piece in flour, shaking off the excess.

Step 3

Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the olive oil and butter, swirling to combine.

Step 4

Once the butter is melted and foaming, add the pork medallions in a single layer. Sear for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown. Work in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding the pan. Set the pork aside on a plate.

Step 5

Reduce the heat to medium. In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and chopped rosemary. Sauté for 30 seconds, or until fragrant.

Step 6

Deglaze the pan by adding chicken broth and balsamic vinegar. Use a wooden spoon to scrape up the browned bits from the bottom of the pan.

Step 7

Stir in the blackberries and honey. Simmer for 3-4 minutes, gently mashing some of the blackberries with the back of a spoon to create a sauce while leaving others whole for texture.

Step 8

Return the pork medallions to the skillet. Spoon the blackberry sauce over the pork and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, or until the pork is fully cooked and reaches an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).

Step 9

Taste the sauce and adjust seasoning with additional salt or pepper, if needed.

Step 10

Serve immediately, garnished with fresh parsley. Pair with mashed potatoes, rice, or a crisp green salad for a complete meal.
