    🥘 Ingredients

    Grab some fresh mushrooms and crisp up your fave brand of bacon to get this easy pork dinner started!

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

    *Be sure to see the free printable recipe card below for ingredients, exact amounts & instructions with tips!*

    🔪 Step-By-Step Instructions

    How To Cook Pork Tenderloin

    To begin, portion your pork tenderloin after trimming any excess fat. Our tenderloin packages usually have two strips of tenderloin fillets.

    Process photo 1 crisp the sliced bacon.

    Process photo 2 place the medallions in pan.

    Process photo 3 sear the seasoned pork tenderloin medallions.

    Process photo 4 flip and sear the reverse side.
    4
    1. Prep. Cut the 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 salt, pepper, paprika, and 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 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

    Process photo 8 stir in heavy cream then simmer until thickened.

    1. Saute mushrooms. Leave the skillet or frying pan with the cooked pork pan juices on medium-high heat and add minced garlic and cut mushrooms. Cook until garlic is slightly softened, about 2 minutes.
    2. Make it saucy. Add the heavy cream, Dijon mustard, and cut sage leaves. Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat and allow to simmer over low heat until thickened. Taste and season with salt and pepper, as needed.
    3. Serve. Spoon your gravy over the pork tenderloin fillets and serve immediately.

    🥗 Sides

    Some of my favorite sides include baked Parmesan yellow squash rounds, jasmine rice, garlic red skin mashed potatoes, or garlic Parmesan roasted broccoli for a complete dinner.

    💭 Angela's Tips & Recipe Notes

    • 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 for Medium Rare
      150 - 155ºF for Medium
      155 - 160ºF for Medium Well
      160ºF for Well
    • Store leftovers in an airtight storage container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days. Use freezer storage containers to freeze for up to 2-3 months for best quality.
