🥘 Pork Tenderloin With Mushroom Gravy Ingredients

Grab some fresh mushrooms and crisp up your fave brand of bacon to get this easy pork dinner started! You can use dried sage in a pinch, but fresh sage definitely looks and tastes the best!

• Pork Tenderloin - 2 pounds of pork tenderloin (roughly 2 lbs+, cut into 1-1 ½ inch slices or medallions).
• Salt & Pepper - ½ teaspoon each of salt & pepper.
• Smoked Paprika - ½ teaspoon of smoked paprika (regular or sweet paprika are also great in this recipe!)
• Garlic Powder - ¼ teaspoon of garlic powder.
• Coconut Oil - 1 tablespoon of coconut oil (or your preferred cooking oil).
• Mushrooms - 8 ounces of mushrooms (white button mushrooms or baby bella mushrooms, washed & sliced).
• Garlic - 1 tablespoon of minced garlic.
• Sage - 4-6 fresh sage leaves (roughly chopped, large pieces - plus more for garnish if desired).
• Bacon - 2 strips of bacon (I love thick-cut bacon and think Applewood smoked bacon pairs wonderfully with pork).
• Heavy Cream - 1 ½ cups of heavy cream.
• Dijon Mustard - 2 tablespoons of coarse ground Dijon mustard or a Dijon mustard substitute.

🔪 How To Make Pork Tenderloin With Mushroom Gravy

Before you get started, make sure to portion your pork tenderloin after trimming any excess fat. You'll need

1. Prep. Cut 2 pounds (917 grams) of pork tenderloins into 1-1 ½ inch sliced portions for your filets. Each tenderloin should yield 6 or more filets.
2. Combine the seasoning. Measure and mix the ½ teaspoon (3 grams) of salt, ½ teaspoon (3 grams) of pepper, ½ teaspoon (1 gram) of paprika, and ¼ teaspoon (0.75 grams) of garlic powder in a small bowl, then season both sides of each cut pork tenderloin portion. *I usually roll the sides through my seasoning as well. It adds even more wonderful flavor!
3. Heat. Bring a large skillet or frying pan with 1 tablespoon (14 grams) of coconut oil to medium-high heat. Once the oil begins to shimmer and is just about to start smoking, it's hot enough for pan-searing the pork.
4. Sear the pork medallions. Cook for 3 minutes per side, a little bit longer, closer to 4 minutes if the pork filets are thick cut.
5. Rest. Remove from heat when both sides are golden and caramelized. Set aside and allow the pork tenderloin filets to rest while you make the pan gravy.

Make The Mushroom Gravy

1. Saute the mushrooms. Leave the skillet or frying pan with the cooked pork pan juices on medium-high heat, and add 1 tablespoon (8 grams) of minced garlic and 8 ounces (226.8 grams) of cut mushrooms. Cook until the garlic is slightly softened, about 2 minutes.
2. Make the gravy. Add 1 ½ cups (354.88 milliliters) of heavy cream, 2 tablespoons (30 grams) of Dijon mustard, 2 strips (44 grams) of crisped bacon pieces, and 4-6 cut sage leaves. Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat and allow to simmer over low heat until thickened.
3. Serve. Season with salt and pepper, as needed, to taste. Spoon over the prepared pork tenderloin medallions and serve immediately.

💭 Angela's Pro Tips & Recipe Notes

• Our pork tenderloin packages usually have two strips of tenderloin fillets per package. You will want to trim away any excess fat before you slice your tenderloins into medallions.
• The recommended minimum internal temperature, as read by a digital meat thermometer, for 'fresh-cut muscle meats' including pork loin, tenderloin, pork chops, and pork roasts, is 145ºF (63ºC) followed by a three-minute rest time.
• Levels of doneness with pork loin and tenderloin are below:
  145-150ºF (63-66°C) for medium-rare
  150-155ºF (66-68°C) for medium
  155-160ºF (68-70°C) for medium-well
  160+ºF (70+°C) for well-done

🥡 Storing & Reheating

Store leftovers in an airtight storage container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days.

Freezing Pork Tenderloin

Use freezer storage containers to freeze for up to 2-3 months for best quality. Transfer it to the fridge overnight to thaw before reheating.

Reheating Pork Tenderloin

You can reheat your pork tenderloin with mushroom gravy over medium-low heat on the stovetop, flipping occasionally until warmed through. Alternatively, you can put it in a baking dish in the oven and cover it with foil. Add a splash of broth to thin the gravy if needed. Bake at 325°F (160°C/Gas Mark 3) for 20-25 minutes or until warmed through.
