This 30-minute Boursin pork tenderloin recipe is an effortlessly elevated weeknight meal! It has ultra tender pork along with a cream cheese herb sauce.

📝 Ingredients

  • 1 pound pork tenderloin
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • Salt & pepper (to taste)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1/2 medium onion (chopped)
  • 3/4 cup chicken broth ((use low sodium if sensitive to salt))
  • 1 (5.2 oz/150g) package Boursin Fine Herbs & Garlic cheese (softened)
  • 1-2 tablespoons chopped parsley

👨‍🍳 Instructions

  1. 1Trim off excess fat and silver skin and slice the pork tenderloin into 1" thick rounds. Season with the garlic powder and some salt & pepper (but go easy on the salt).
  2. 2Add the olive oil and butter to a skillet over medium-high heat. Let the pan heat up for a few minutes. Once the pan is hot, add the pork (do it in two batches if the pan will be crowded) and sear for about 3 minutes/side or until lightly golden. Transfer the pork to a plate.
  3. 3To the skillet, add the onions and sauté for about 5 minutes or until softened and lightly browned. If the pan seems dry, add a small splash more olive oil.
  4. 4Add the chicken broth and the Boursin to the skillet. Stir until you've got a smooth sauce. Let it bubble for 4-5 minutes, then stir in the chopped parsley.
  5. 5Add the pork (and any plate juices) back in and cook for another 3-5 minutes or until the sauce has thickened up a bit more and the pork is cooked through (145F minimum). Add in another splash of chicken broth if the sauce gets too thick.
  6. 6Season with extra salt & pepper if needed, and serve immediately.
