Tender, juicy pork medallions are served with a creamy wine sauce to create a mouthwatering meal. This whole recipe comes together in just about 20 minutes!

Provided by Mary Younkin

Categories     Main Course

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 1/2 pounds pork tenderloin
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/3 cup white wine
1/2 teaspoon chicken base
1/2 cup heavy cream
1/2 teaspoon cornstarch
1 dash paprika
2 teaspoons chopped fresh Italian parsley

Steps:

  • Slice the pork tenderloin into 1-inch medallions and lightly sprinkle each side with salt and pepper. Warm a large stainless skillet over medium-high heat. Add the oil and when it is shimmering, add the pork to the skillet. Let the pork cook without touching it for 3 minutes. Set a plate next to the stove along with a piece of foil to cover the pork.
  • Use a metal spatula to get underneath each one and flip them over. Don't worry if they stick a bit. Cover with a lid and cook for 3 minutes. Lift each medallion with the spatula and transfer to the waiting plate. Cover lightly with foil to keep warm.
  • Place the empty skillet back on the stove over medium heat. Add the wine to the hot skillet and use a spatula to scrape up the little browned bits of meat and deglaze the pan. Add the chicken base, whisk to combine, and cook for about 2 minutes.
  • In a small cup, whisk the cornstarch, and paprika into the cream until smooth. Add the cream into the saucepan slowly, whisking until combined. Continue cooking over medium heat, stirring constantly until it thickens slightly, about 1 minute. Pour the sauce over the pork, sprinkle with parsley, and serve. Enjoy!

Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 1/2 pounds boneless pork loin
Coarse salt and ground pepper
1 shallot, diced
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1 cup port wine
1/2 pound ripe fresh figs (about 8), stemmed and halved

PORK LOIN WITH FIG AND PORT SAUCE



Pork Loin with Fig and Port Sauce image

Provided by Giada De Laurentiis

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 1/2 cups port
1 1/4 cups reduced-sodium chicken broth
8 dried black Mission figs, coarsely chopped
2 sprigs fresh rosemary
2 cinnamon sticks
1 tablespoon honey
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into pieces
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons chopped fresh rosemary leaves
1 tablespoon salt, plus additional for seasoning
1 1/2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper, plus additional for seasoning
1 cup canned low-salt chicken broth
1 (4 to 4 1/2-pound) boneless pork loin

Steps:

  • For the sauce: In a heavy medium saucepan, combine the first 6 ingredients. Boil over medium-high heat until reduced by half, about 30 minutes. Discard the herb sprigs and cinnamon sticks (some of the rosemary leaves will remain in the port mixture). Transfer the port mixture to a blender and puree until smooth. Blend in the butter. Season the sauce, to taste, with salt and pepper. (The sauce can be made 1 day ahead. Cover and refrigerate. Rewarm over medium heat before using.)
  • For the pork: Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
  • Stir the oil, rosemary, 1 tablespoon salt and 1 1/2 teaspoons pepper in a small bowl to blend. Place the pork loin in a heavy roasting pan. Spread the oil mixture over the pork to coat completely. Roast until an instant read meat thermometer inserted into the center of the pork registers 145 degrees F, turning the pork every 15 minutes to ensure even browning, about 45 minutes total.
  • Transfer the pork to a cutting board and tent with foil to keep warm. Let the pork rest 15 minutes. Meanwhile, stir the chicken broth into the roasting pan. Place the pan over medium heat, and scrape the bottom of the pan to remove any browned bits. Bring the pan juices to a simmer. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
  • Using a large sharp knife, cut the pork crosswise into 1/4-inch-thick slices. Arrange the pork slices on plates. Spoon the jus over. Drizzle the warm fig sauce around and serve immediately.

Tips:

  • Choose high-quality pork medallions: Look for medallions that are about 1 inch thick and have a good amount of marbling. This will ensure that they are tender and flavorful.
  • Sear the medallions properly: Searing the medallions in a hot skillet will create a nice crust and help to lock in the juices. Be sure to sear them for 2-3 minutes per side, or until they are golden brown.
  • Use a good quality port wine: The port wine sauce is a key component of this dish, so be sure to use a good quality wine. Look for a port wine that is rich and fruity, with a good balance of sweetness and acidity.
  • Reduce the port wine sauce until it is thick and syrupy: This will help to concentrate the flavors of the wine and create a rich, flavorful sauce.
  • Serve the pork medallions with your favorite sides: Some good options include mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a simple salad.

Conclusion:

Pork medallions with fig port wine sauce is a delicious and elegant dish that is perfect for a special occasion. The tender pork medallions are seared to perfection and then simmered in a rich and flavorful port wine sauce. The figs add a touch of sweetness and complexity to the sauce, and the whole dish is sure to impress your guests.
