Pork Tenderloin Medallions
Boy, this diet thing is getting old. All I can say is that it’s a good thing I like protein.
I am still collecting dessert recipes galore but setting them aside for now. In the meantime, I am on the prowl for new and tasty ways to cook chicken, beef, pork and seafood.
This recipe for pork tenderloin medallions is actually one I’ve had in my repertoire for over 10 years. It qualifies as cheating for me because there is a little bit of butter (gasp—fat!) and flour (horrors—starch carbs!), but a girl’s gotta do what a girl’s gotta do.
The prep is easy—and, after that, the oven does the rest of the work. The pork medallions are so tender and flavorful. Pre-diet, I would serve it over rice or couscous; and, certainly, mashed potatoes would be a drool-worthy accompaniment especially with the flavorful vegetables and sauce.
Mashed potatoes! Sigh…
