Ingredients
  

1 lb pork tenderloin

½ cup pure maple syrup

2 tbsp Dijon mustard

1 tbsp apple cider vinegar

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 tsp dried thyme

1 tsp salt

½ tsp black pepper

2 tbsp olive oil

Fresh parsley, for garnish

Instructions
 

Prepare the marinade: In a bowl, whisk together the maple syrup, Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, minced garlic, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper until well combined.

    Marinate the pork: Slice the pork tenderloin into 1-inch medallions and place them in a shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the medallions, ensuring they are well-coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes (or up to 2 hours for more flavor).

      Heat the pan: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, remove the medallions from the marinade, letting excess drip off, and add them to the skillet in a single layer.

        Sear the medallions: Cook the medallions for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and have an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).

          Add glaze: Once the pork is cooked through, pour the remaining marinade into the skillet, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom. Allow the sauce to simmer for 2-3 minutes, or until it thickens slightly.

            Serve: Transfer the medallions to a serving platter, drizzling them with the maple glaze. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
