Instructions
  1. Rinse and pat dry pork tenderloin. Cut in 2″ thick pieces and add salt and pepper.
  2. Rinse mushrooms and slice. Keep to side for now.
  3. Add a bit of olive oil along with some fresh rosemary, about one sprig and the smashed garlic to cast iron skillet. Heat over med to high heat. Add the pork medallions, allowing to brown on one side, then flipping to brown on the other.
  4. Once browned, remove medallions from heat and place on plate. Add sliced mushrooms to same skillet to add flavor from pork. You can add more smashed garlic and rosemary and extra virgin olive oil if you prefer here.
  5. Once mushrooms are browned, add back the medallions as well as more rosemary on top of pork and allow to simmer together for about 15 minutes to perhaps 20. Check internal temperature, safe to eat at 145F however I find that too pink/rare, so I allow the temp to climb to 155F, then while removing the meat, it still cooks and is able to reach temp to 160. Succulent and perfect!
