I have to say, I really love the flavor of pork with Dijon mustard. It has to be one of my favorite combinations so this week, I did a little experimenting and came up with a nice Pork Tenderloin Medallions with a Dijon Cream Sauce recipe. I hope you will enjoy it!
I started off by taking my pork tenderloin and removing the outside layer of fat. I then sliced it in to medallions.
Season the medallions with thyme, salt, and pepper and then cook them in a skillet for about 5 minutes, until cooked through.
Remove the medallions and let rest on a plate. Add chicken broth and white wine to the skillet and de-glaze the pan. Bring up to a boil and let reduce by half.
Lower the heat and add in the heavy cream and dijon mustard. I used 2 Tbsp but you could use more if you want a stronger flavor. I also added in salt/pepper to taste.
Once the sauce is mixed, I added in the pork medallions to warm back up and get some of the flavor of the sauce.
Enjoy!
