Ingredients
- 1 pound pork tenderloin
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- salt & pepper to taste
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1/4 cup Dijon mustard see note
- 1/2 cup chicken broth
- 1/2 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 tablespoon butter
- chopped parsley optional, to taste
Instructions
- Trim any fat and silver skin off the pork tenderloin and then cut into 3/4" thick medallions. Season them with the garlic powder and salt & pepper.
- Whisk the sauce ingredients together (honey, Dijon, chicken broth, cornstarch).
- Add the oil and butter to a skillet over medium-high heat. Once the pan is hot, add the pork (you may need to do this in batches so as not to crowd the pan) and cook for about 3 minutes/side until golden.
- Reduce the heat to medium-low. Pour the sauce into the skillet and cook for another 1-3 minutes or until the pork is cooked through and the sauce has thickened.
- Sprinkle parsley over top if using and season with extra salt & pepper as needed.

Notes
- You can swap the Dijon mustard with another variety of mustard, but keep in mind the sharpness of the Dijon does offset some of the sweetness of the honey, and some mustards may make the dish super sweet.
