Ingredients
1
pork tenderloin
about 1 lb
8
mushrooms
average size white or coffee variety sliced
3
tbsp
butter
3
tbsp
Dijon mustard
1
cup
onion soup
2
tbsp
tarragon
½
cup
10% cream
Salt and Pepper
1/2
cup

Instructions
Cut pork into medallions about ¾ inch thick.
With a meat mallet, pound each medallion between two pieces of plastic wrap until about ¼ inch even thickness.
Place meat on a large platter and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
Melt the butter in a large skillet at medium heat.
Fry the pork for about two minutes per side. Since you don't want to overfill the pan, you'll need to fry the pork in batches.
Set the cooked pork aside in a large dish with a lid and coat one side of it with the mustard.
Once all the pork has been fried, add the mushrooms to the pan and stir fry for about a minute.
Add the broth and tarragon and reduce a little (boiling for about two minutes).
Add the cream, stir and bring to a simmer.
Return the pork to the pan, stir to coat the pork with the sauce, cover and simmer to allow the pork to reheat.
Serve topped with the sauce and garnished with parsley.
Notes
Serve with roasted Parisienne potatoes and Brussels sprouts. See below for more suggestions.
