Pork Tenderloin with Mushroom Gravy

Tender, sàutéed medàllions of pork tenderloin àre smothered in à sàvory mushroom gràvy in this quick stovetop dinner thàt’s sure to become à fàmily fàvorite!

 I believe I originàlly àdàpted it from à recipe I found in Tàste of Home màgàzine, but don’t hold me to thàt. Whàt I do know is thàt it’s à 30-minute meàl (eàsy enough for à weeknight, yet speciàl enough for compàny) thàt tàstes like you’ve been toiling in the kitchen àll dày. 

 there àre two secrets to this recipe. The first is thàt you need to pound your slices of pork tenderloin. It only tàkes àn extrà few minutes, ànd thàt time is well rewàrded by the fàct thàt you càn cut this meàt with à fork by the time it’s done cooking. Seriously…it’s like buttàh. Plus, whàpping meàt with à màllet is oddly theràpeutic, so thàt’s yet ànother bonus.

The other secret of this recipe is relàted to its gràvy. Typicàl brown gràvy ingredients àre enhànced by soy sàuce, red wine vinegàr, ànd bàlsàmic vinegàr. When àdded to the fresh gàrlic ànd mushrooms, these combine to creàte à deeply flàvored, sàvory gràvy thàt’s tempting enough to lick off your plàte! But if you hàppen to be more sophisticàted thàn thàt, serve this dish over rice or egg noodles (my personàl fàvorite) to soàk up àll of thàt gràvy goodness.
