Ingredients
- 2 tbsp Olive oil
- 1½ lbs Pork tenderloin
- Salt and black pepper
- 1 Lemon – juiced
- 2 cloves Garlic – crushed
- 4 tbsp Butter
- 2 Lemons – sliced
- 2 tbsp Heavy cream
Instructions
- Cut the roast into 12-inch pieces to make the pork tenderloin medallions. Put each piece in a baggie and pound it thin with a meat tenderizer or heavy skillet. Season all of the thin cutlets with salt and pepper.
- Heat the oil in a large saute pan over medium-high heat. Brown the pork on both sides in the skillet. Once the pork is golden brown, remove it from the pan and use the pan to make the sauce.
- Scrape up all of the brown bits. Add in the lemon juice, butter, and garlic and whisk to combine.
- Put the pork back in the pan and top with the lemon slices. Cover with a lid and cook for 5 minutes or until the pork is done.
- Remove the pork and lemons from the pan and arrange them on a platter. Whisk together the heavy cream and the sauce. Serve the sauce over the pork.
