  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • Apricot Jam

How to Make Apricot Pork Medallions

  1. Flatten pork tenderloin pieces to about 1/2-inch thickness.
  2. Melt 1 tablespoon butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  3. Season pork medallions with salt and pepper. Sear for 2-3 minutes per side, until browned.
  4. Remove pork from skillet and set aside.
  5. Add 1 teaspoon butter, 1/4 cup apricot jam, 1/4 cup finely chopped yellow onion, 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard, and 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar to the skillet.
  6. Bring to a simmer, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Cover and cook for 3-4 minutes, or until sauce slightly thickens.
  7. Return pork medallions to the skillet. Toss to coat in the apricot glaze. Heat through for 1-2 minutes.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Elevate your dish with simple flavor boosters! A final flourish of freshly chopped herbs can add incredible brightness, while a squeeze of lemon or lime juice right before serving can awaken all the flavors. Don't underestimate a sprinkle of quality finishing salt or a drizzle of good olive oil to make your creation shine.
