    Sliced Pork Tenderloin Cooking in a Pan
  • Season the medallions to taste with salt and pepper.
  • I like to mix a little soy sauce with a rich BBQ sauce and let the sliced pork sit in for an hour. But you can also use a simple chili and lime sauce to produce a flavorsome one-pot dish also.
    You Can Use Bbq Sauce and Diced or Powdered Garlic for More Flavor
  • Heat a pan with a medium-high heat and add the meat tenderloin slices, cooking just a few minutes on both sides.
  • Cook for about 3 to 6 minutes depending on how much pork tenderloin you are making - Get it to at least 145F
    Use a meat thermometer to ensure proper cooking.
  • You can also add a sauce or glaze to the pork tenderloin while cooking.
    Experiment with different spices and seasonings to create unique flavors.
  • Pork tenderloin can be cooked in a cast-iron or stainless steel pan.
    Don't overcrowd the pan, as it can prevent the tenderloin from searing properly

Notes

  1. Pork tenderloin pairs well with a variety of sides, such as roasted vegetables or mashed potatoes.
  2. A well-cooked pork tenderloin should be slightly pink in the center.
  3. Pork tenderloin is a lean and healthy protein that can be a great addition to any meal.
  4. Don't overcrowd the pan, as it can prevent the tenderloin from searing properly.
