Ingredients

Scale
  • 1.5 pounds pork tenderloin
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth
  • 1/4 cup heavy cream
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F and lightly grease a baking dish or use an oven-safe skillet.
  2. In a small bowl, mix salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, thyme, and rosemary.
  3. Pat the pork tenderloin dry, rub with olive oil, and coat evenly with the spice blend.
  4. Heat a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat and sear the pork for 3-4 minutes per side until golden brown.
  5. Pour chicken broth into the skillet and transfer to the oven; roast for 20-25 minutes until internal temperature reaches 145°F.
  6. In a small saucepan, whisk heavy cream, Dijon mustard, and honey over medium heat until warmed through (do not boil).
  7. Remove pork from oven and let it rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing.
  8. Slice into medallions, drizzle with the cream sauce, garnish with parsley, and serve.

Notes

  • Always use a meat thermometer to ensure the pork reaches exactly 145°F for the best texture.
  • Resting the meat is essential to keep the juices from running out when sliced.
  • If you don't have an oven-safe skillet, transfer the seared meat to a baking dish before adding broth and roasting.
