Ingredients
  

  • 4 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil divided
  • 1¼ pounds mushrooms thinly sliced
  • Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • 1 medium red or yellow onion
  • 1 1–1½-pound pork tenderloin
  • ½ tsp garlic powder or 2 minced garlic cloves
  • ¾ cup half-and-half
  • 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
  • 1 cup fresh parsley leaves and tender stems, chopped
  • 2 tsp apple cider vinegar or red wine vinegar

Instructions
 

  • Sauté the Mushrooms: Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the sliced mushrooms, tossing them to coat evenly. Let them cook undisturbed for about 3 minutes, then stir. Continue cooking in intervals of 3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until golden brown (6 to 9 minutes total). Add more oil if needed. Season with ¾ tsp salt and a few grinds of pepper, then transfer the mushrooms to a bowl.
  • Prepare the Pork & Onion: While the mushrooms cook, thinly slice the onion. Remove the silver skin from the pork tenderloin, then slice it into ½-inch-thick rounds. Cut each round in half to form half-moon pieces.
  • Cook the Pork & Onion: Return the skillet to medium-high heat and add the remaining 2 tbsp olive oil. Once hot, add the onion and pork slices. Season with 1½ tsp salt, some freshly ground pepper, and the garlic powder. Cook, stirring occasionally, for about 4 minutes until the pork is almost cooked through.
  • Make the Sauce: Add the sautéed mushrooms back to the skillet along with any collected juices. Stir in the half-and-half and Dijon mustard, letting the sauce simmer until it thickens slightly and evenly coats the pork and mushrooms, about 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Finish & Serve: While the pork finishes cooking, finely chop the parsley. Stir it into the skillet along with the vinegar. Divide into four servings and enjoy!
