kcalSucculent and flavorful pork medallions are seasoned with fresh rosemary and balsamic vinegar in this recipe. The herbaceous rosemary cuts through the usually thick flavor of the balsamic vinegar for a perfect pairing. Serve with Cauliflower Mash or steamed asparagus for a complete meal.
Ingredients
1 (1-pound) pork tenderloin, sliced into 1 1⁄2-inch-thick medallions
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp freshly ground black pepper
2 tbsp olive oil
4 tbsp butter, divided
1 garlic clove, minced
1 shallot, minced
3 tbsp balsamic vinegar
1 tsp soy sauce
4 fresh rosemary sprigs
4 fresh thyme sprigs
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 475°F.
- Season each medallion with the salt and pepper.
- In a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat, heat the olive oil and 1 tablespoon of butter for 1 minute. Add the garlic and shallot and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the pork medallions to the skillet. Sear on each side for about 2 minutes.
- Add the balsamic vinegar, soy sauce, rosemary, thyme, and the remaining 3 tablespoons of butter to the skillet. Stir to combine. Spoon the balsamic mixture over the pork. Bring to a simmer and cook for about 2 minutes.
- Remove the skillet from the heat and place it into the preheated oven. Bake for 5 minutes. Flip the medallions and spoon the balsamic mixture over each piece. Continue baking for an additional 5 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 150°F.
- Remove from the oven and allow the pork to rest for 2 to 3 minutes before serving.
- Serve with your preferred sides and any remaining balsamic sauce from the pan.
