Pan Seared Pork Medallions

Ingredients
 

  • 1 lb pork tenderloin, cut into 12 medallions
  • ½ cup chicken broth
  • 3 tablespoons vegetable oil, divided
  • 1 tablespoon butter, plus more for the sauce
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • ½ teaspoon paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
  • ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground black
  • chopped fresh parsley, for garnish

Instructions
 

  • Heat a 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat with 2 tablespoon of oil.
  • Slice the pork tenderloin into 12 pieces.
  • In a small bowl, mix salt, pepper, thyme, paprika, and garlic powder. Sprinkle this seasoning over each pork medallion, pressing it in and ensuring an even thickness.
  • Place half of the pork medallions into the skillet. Cook for 3 minutes; avoid overcrowding the pan to prevent steaming.
  • Flip the pork medallions, add ½ tablespoon of butter, and cook for an additional 3 to 4 minutes until done, reaching an internal temperature of 145°F. Cooking time depends on medallion thickness. Set aside on a platter.
  • Repeat the process with the remaining pork medallions.
  • Return the skillet to heat, slowly adding chicken broth. Carefully deglaze the pan, cooking for 1 minute over medium-high heat.
  • Add a few small pieces of butter, gently stirring to thicken the sauce slightly.
  • Return the medallions to the skillet briefly to heat through, spooning the sauce over them.
  • Remove from heat.
  • Garnish with parsley and serve.
