Pork Medallions with Creamy Mushroom Sauce

I think this is the first time the word mushroom has been in the title of any post I have EVER made. It was not until a month or so ago that I even started eating them…and now I LOVE THEM, and they are perfect in this dish!

Pork & Mushrooms

While I was at the store the other day I came across a beautiful pork tenderloin. Now I am a big pork tenderloin fan, but I wanted to make a one skillet dinner so i decided to cut the tenderloin into medallions. Not only did it make the cooking time minimal, it also made for super tender little chunks of meat that were perfect with the cream sauce.

During the same shopping trip I came across a pack of already chopped button mushrooms on sale so I decided then and there that I was going to make pork tenderloin with a creamy mushroom sauce, I am so loving keto…creamy sauces are my weakness.

OH the sauce

I wanted to make this dinner as easy as possible so I did everything in the same skillet. First cooked the medallions until they were slightly pink in the center, you could cook them well done if you would like, and they had a nice crust on the outside. I then removed them a plate and covered them with foil while I made the decadent sauce.

First came the mushrooms and let them cook down until nice and brown…look how pretty they are. Then came the cream, cream cheese and cheese. Once all put together it was a rich, creamy, delicious sauce that paired perfectly with the pork.

This sauce was so good I want to use it with chicken next time, and then over some zoodles/noodles. Really this will probably become a go to sauce.
