Ready in: 1 hour 20 mins

Ingredients

Serves: 4

• 1 1/2 pounds pork tenderloin, trimmed and cut into 2-inch rounds
• 2 tablespoons oil
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• Black pepper
• 1 small clove garlic, crushed
• Sauce:
• 6 ounces mushrooms, thinly sliced
• 1 onion, chopped finely
• 1/4 cup butter
• 2 tablespoons dry sherry
• Salt and black pepper
• 1/2 cup half-and-half

Preparation method

Prep: 30 mins | Cook: 20 mins | Extra time: 30 mins, marinating

1. Working in batches, place pork rounds on their sides between layers of parchment paper. Flatten with a rolling pin or meat pounder until they are 1/2-inch thick.
2. Combine oil, lemon juice, black pepper, garlic, and pork rounds in a large plastic resealable bag. Let the meat marinate for 30 minutes on the counter, then drain.
3. Place butter in a large skillet and set over medium heat. When the butter melts, add the onions and cook for about 5 minutes to soften. Stir in mushrooms and cook for 2 more minutes, then pour onions and mushrooms onto a plate and cover with foil.
4. Cook pork slices in the skillet for 4 to 5 minutes, flipping midway through cooking time, until pork is cooked through and no longer pink. Set on a plate and cover with foil.
5. Pour sherry into the skillet and cook for about 5 minutes to reduce to 1 tablespoon. Add cooked onions and mushrooms to the sherry, along with salt and pepper to taste and the half-and-half. Warm through.
6. Serve pork with the sauce spooned over each helping.
