      My Pro Tips for Making the Best Pork Medallions<\/h2>\n\n\n

      When preparing pork tenderloin, it’s super important to completely remove the shiny white membrane covering part of the meat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      This process is commonly known as trimming the silverskin<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Silverskin is a thin layer of connective tissue that won’t break down or tenderize during cooking. No matter how you cook the tenderloin, it will stay tough and chewy if left on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      To remove the silverskin easily, your best bet is to use a sharp paring knife.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Slip the tip of the knife under the silverskin near one end, angling the blade flat and parallel to the meat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Then, gently glide the knife down the length of the tenderloin while holding the loose strip of silverskin taut with your other hand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      This trick keeps you from wasting any meat and lets you peel away the silverskin cleanly in thin strips!<\/p>\n\n

      You can go ahead and toss the trimmed silver skin—it’s way too tough to eat anyway!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      If trimming it sounds like a hassle, you can always ask your butcher to trim the tenderloin for you, or just buy pre-cut medallions ready to go.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Instead of Black Forest ham, feel free to wrap the medallions in bacon, prosciutto, or any cured ham you like.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      The ham mainly helps lock in moisture so the meat doesn’t dry out while cooking, so honestly, use whichever kind you love best!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Swapping Out the Pork Tenderloin<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

      Not a big fan of pork? No worries, you don’t have to miss out on this delicious dinner!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      You can easily swap in turkey breast and wrap it with beef bacon or prosciutto instead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Turkey breast is super lean and tender, making it perfect for this recipe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      What to Serve with This Dish<\/h2>\n\n\n

      For side dishes, I love serving this with pasta like fettuccine<\/strong> or spaghetti<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Spaetzle<\/strong> is another fantastic option—you can boil it or quickly pan-fry it in a little butter for extra flavor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      And of course, cooked potatoes<\/strong> or rice<\/strong> work great too. At the end of the day, go with whatever sounds best to you! \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n\n\n

      How to Store Leftovers<\/h2>\n\n\n

      These creamy pork medallions will keep well in the fridge for 1 to 2 days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      If you have leftovers, just let them cool down, transfer them to an airtight container, and pop them right in the fridge.<\/p>\n\n
