| 2 tablespoons olive oil | Fresh parsley for garnish (optional) |
| 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard |
Preparation
1. Prepare the Pork: Trim excess fat from the pork tenderloin and cut it into 1-inch thick medallions.
2. Season the Pork: In a bowl, combine the Hop Barons Pork Seasoning with olive oil. Coat each pork medallion with the seasoning mixture, ensuring even coverage.
3. Marinate: Allow the pork to marinate for at least 15-20 minutes to let the flavors meld.
