Image Step 01
01 Step

Recipe View Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Pat the pork tenderloins dry with paper towels. Season evenly with salt, pepper, granulated garlic, and Herbes de Provence. (5 minutes)

Recipe View Heat olive oil in a large, oven-proof skillet (cast iron works great!) over medium-high heat until it shimmers. Add both pork tenderloins and sear, undisturbed, until deeply golden brown and easily release from the pan, about 5 minutes. Flip each piece and sear for an additional 3 minutes undisturbed. (8 minutes)

Recipe View Bake in the preheated oven until the pork is slightly pink in the center, 15 to 19 minutes. Use an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the tenderloin to ensure it reaches at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C). (19 minutes)

05 Step

Recipe View Remove the skillet from the oven and transfer the pork tenderloins to a cutting board. Tent loosely with foil and allow to rest for 5 to 10 minutes before slicing. This allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more tender and flavorful final product. (10 minutes)

06 Step

Recipe View Slice the pork tenderloins into medallions and serve immediately, drizzled generously with the pan juices. Garnish with fresh herbs, if desired.

For best results, use high-quality pork tenderloins. Look for ones that are uniform in thickness for even cooking.
Don't overcrowd the pan when searing. If your skillet isn't large enough to accommodate both tenderloins without touching, sear them in batches.
A cast iron skillet provides excellent heat retention and creates a beautiful sear, but any oven-proof skillet will work.
The resting period is crucial! Don't skip it.

    Easy to follow and the results were amazing! I used chicken stock instead of wine, and it was still delicious.
