Filetto di maiale facile al Boursin (irresistibile!)

Ingredienti

• 2 pork tenderloins (about 2 lbs total)
• 1 tsp kosher salt
• 1/2 tsp ground black pepper
• 1 tbsp olive oil
• 1/2 cup diced shallot (1-2 large shallots, or you can use sweet onion)
• 3/4 cup chicken broth
• 1 5.3 oz block of Garlic and Herb Boursin cheese
• 1 tsp fresh chopped thyme

Preparazione

1. 1

   Preheat the oven to 375ºF.

2. 2

   Pat the pork dry with paper towels. Trim the silverskin and any excess fat off of the pork tenderloins. Sprinkle them evenly with salt and pepper.

3. 3

   In a large oven-safe skillet (I used a 12-inch cast iron), heat the oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the pork tenderloins and sear for about 6-7 minutes, until it is golden on every side.

4. 4

   Transfer to the oven and bake for 13-15 minutes, or until it just reaches 145 degrees with a meat thermometer in the thickest part. Every oven is different - I always recommend checking your pork a little early to ensure it doesn’t dry out. If one is finished before the other, remove it and let the other one finish cooking.

5. 5

   Once finished, set the pork aside on a cutting board to rest. Place the skillet back on the stove over medium heat. Add the shallots/onion and cook for 2-3 minutes, until softened.

6. 6

   Add the chicken broth and Boursin cheese, stirring gently until everything is fully incorporated. Cook at a gentle simmer for about 1 minute, then stir in the fresh thyme.

7. 7

   Slice the pork into ½-1 inch slices. Serve with the pan sauce alongside your favorite sides.
