PORK MEDALLIONS WITH BLUE CHEESE SAUCE

Pork Medallions with Blue Cheese Sauce cut from a pork tenderloin to steaks pan seared to tender juicy perfection is then topped with a decadent, but simple blue cheese pan sauce in 30 minutes for easy casual entertaining!


The tenderloin is a great choice for a gourmet comfort food dinner because it is so tender.  Even after pan cooking it, it’s so tender that you can easily cut it with your fork!!

If you don’t like blue cheese you can use gorgonzola, goat or even a brie cheese.  Any cheese that is super creamy and soft will work.  Cheeses like cheddar will work, but not as well in this because of the way they melt.  The flavor will still be great, but the texture will be slightly grainy.

This blue cheese sauce is very versatile, you could use it as a warm dipping sauce in a fondue pot, or over a grilled steak.
