Tips:

  • Choose high-quality pork medallions: Look for medallions that are evenly thick and have a good amount of marbling. This will ensure that they cook evenly and stay juicy.
  • Use a heavy-bottomed skillet: This will help to prevent the medallions from sticking and will also help to evenly distribute the heat.
  • Sear the medallions over high heat: This will help to create a nice crust on the outside of the medallions, while keeping the inside juicy.
  • Reduce the heat and cook the medallions through: Once the medallions are seared, reduce the heat to medium and cook them for 6-8 minutes per side, or until they reach an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Make the olive caper sauce while the medallions are cooking: This will allow the flavors to meld and develop.
  • Serve the medallions immediately with the olive caper sauce: This dish is best enjoyed when served hot.

Conclusion:

Pork medallions with olive caper sauce is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The medallions are seared until golden brown and then cooked through in a flavorful olive caper sauce. This dish is sure to please everyone at the table.
