This is such an easy and delicious meal. It’s quick and easy to serve during the week but luxurious enough to eat for a special occasion. It’s a hearty and warm meal that is really perfect for a cool and cozy day. My daughter’s favorite cheese is brie so it is really popular in our home! I also like that it is relatively economical. Pork loin is very budget friendly! Served with mashed potatoes and you are ready to eat!
Ingredients
1 wedge Deli Brie cheese (7–8 oz)
1 pork tenderloin (about 1 lb)
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, divided
8 oz fresh, presliced baby portabellas
2 teaspoons chopped garlic
1 teaspoon dried thyme leaves
1/4 cup vegetable (or chicken) broth
Steps
Cut rind from Brie and cut into chunks (about 1 cup); chop parsley. Cut pork into 1-inch medallions; salt and pepper to taste.
Preheat large, nonstick sauté pan on medium-high 1–2 minutes. Melt 2 tablespoons butter in pan. Add pork; cook 2–3 minutes on each side until browned. Remove pork from pan.
Place remaining 2 tablespoons butter, mushrooms, garlic, and thyme in same pan; cook 3–4 minutes, stirring occasionally, or until mushrooms are tender.
Reduce heat to medium-low. Stir in broth and pork medallions; simmer 3–4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until sauce has thickened and pork is 145°F. Remove pan from heat; stir in Brie until melted.
Serve pork with mushroom sauce over mashed potatoes, sprinkled with parsley.
