Provided by Betty Crocker Kitchens

Categories     Entree

Time 55m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 tablespoons butter
1 small onion, finely chopped (1/3 cup)
1 clove garlic, finely chopped
1 cup (4 oz) crumbled blue cheese (preferably an aged Gorgonzola)
3 tablespoons coarsely chopped dried cherries
3 tablespoons chopped pecans
2 teaspoons chopped fresh or 1 teaspoon dried thyme leaves
2 pork tenderloins (1 lb each)
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1 tablespoon vegetable oil

Steps:

  • Adjust oven rack to middle position. Heat oven to 400°F.
  • In 8-inch skillet, heat butter over medium heat until melted. Add onion and cook 3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until soft. Add garlic and cook 30 seconds. Remove from heat and cool about 5 minutes.
  • In medium bowl, stir cheese vigorously with spoon. Stir in cooled onion mixture, cherries, pecans and thyme; set aside.
  • Place 1 pork piece on work surface with short side facing you. Use knife to slit in half lengthwise without going all the way through. Open pork like a book. Repeat with remaining pork. Spread half of the cheese mixture in center of each pork piece. Close up pork and tie with kitchen twine to secure. Season outside with salt and pepper.
  • In 12-inch ovenproof skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat until shimmering and hot. Add pork and cook about 4 minutes or until browned. Flip, being careful not to open them up, and cook about 4 minutes longer. Insert ovenproof meat thermometer so tip is in the thickest part of pork.
  • Place skillet in oven and roast 10 to 15 minutes or until meat thermometer inserted in center reads 155°F. Remove from oven and allow to rest, loosely covered with foil, about 5 minutes (temperature will continue to rise to 160°F). Slice each pork piece into 6 pieces. (If you don't have an ovenproof skillet, after browning pork in skillet, carefully place them in foil-lined 13x9-inch pan and then place in oven.)

PORK MEDALLIONS WITH BLUE CHEESE SAUCE RECIPE



PORK MEDALLIONS WITH BLUE CHEESE SAUCE Recipe image

Provided by charlotteh371

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 lbs pork tenderloin (800g)
2 Tbsp olive oil
2 Tbsp butter divided
2 shallots finely chopped
1/4 cup white wine (60ml)
5 oz blue cheese cubed (140g)
3/4 cup heavy cream (180ml)
Salt
Freshly ground black pepper
1 tsp chopped fresh parsley

Steps:

  • Instructions Trim the tenderloin of the silverskin and any excess fat. Cut the tenderloin into eight 2-inch-thick medallions. Flip each medallion onto a cut side and press down with the palm of your hand to flatten slightly. Season with salt and black pepper. Heat the olive oil and 1 Tbsp butter in a large sauté pan over high heat. When the butter is melted and foaming, add half of the meat and sear until nicely browned, 2 to 3 min. Flip and cook the other side until the meat is well browned and slightly firm to the touch, about another 2 min. Transfer to a plate and repeat with the remaining pork. Melt the remaining tablespoon butter in the pan. Add the shallots and a pinch of salt and sauté for about 30 seconds, using a wooden spoon to scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Deglaze the pan with the white wine. Once the wine has almost completely evaporated add the cream and blue cheese cubes. Simmer over medium heat for about 3 minutes until sauce is smooth and thick. Return the pork and any accumulated juices to the pan, and cook, flipping the pork once, until it's firm to the touch and still a little pink in the middle (cut into a piece to check), 2 to 4 min. Season to taste with salt and pepper and serve garnished with parsley.

Tips:

  • Choose high-quality pork: For the best results, select pork tenderloin or pork chops that are fresh and free of any blemishes. Thicker cuts of pork will cook more evenly and stay moist throughout the cooking process.
  • Pound the pork medallions to an even thickness: This will help them cook evenly and prevent overcooking. You can use a meat mallet or a rolling pin to pound the medallions to a thickness of about 1/2 inch.
  • Season the pork medallions generously: Use a combination of salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder to season the pork medallions. You can also add other herbs and spices to taste.
  • Sear the pork medallions in a hot pan: Searing the pork medallions in a hot pan will create a nice crust and help to lock in the juices. Cook the medallions for 2-3 minutes per side, or until they are browned.
  • Add the blue cheese sauce and simmer: Once the pork medallions are seared, add the blue cheese sauce and simmer for 5-7 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened and the pork is cooked through.
  • Serve immediately: Blue cheese pork medallions are best served immediately with your favorite sides. Some popular sides include mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a simple salad.

Conclusion:

Blue cheese pork medallions are a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. The combination of tender pork, creamy blue cheese sauce, and crispy bread crumbs is sure to please everyone at the table. With just a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a restaurant-quality meal in your own home. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy weeknight dinner, give blue cheese pork medallions a try. You won't be disappointed!
