Cleaning the pork tenderloin is the first essential step to achieving a savory dish. Make sure to remove all the skin and membranes that could affect the final texture and taste of the dish. After washing the meat under a stream of cold water, cut it into slices about 1-1.5 cm thick. This thickness will allow the tenderloin to cook evenly and remain juicy. Use a meat mallet to pound the slices, helping to tenderize the meat and allowing for better penetration of the spices.
After pounding the meat, season it with salt and pepper to taste. These spices are essential as they will amplify the flavors and make the meat tastier. Dipping the slices in flour is an important step, as it will help form a delicious crust during frying. Heat the lard in a deep pan, and when it is well heated, add the slices of meat, browning them on both sides until they achieve a nice golden color.
After browning, transfer them to another pot, where you will add a little chicken broth, vegetable broth, or, in their absence, water. Cover the pot and let the meat simmer on low heat. This slow cooking method will allow the meat to become tender and flavorful. It is important to check from time to time and, if necessary, add a little liquid to prevent sticking.
Meanwhile, in the same pan, use the remaining lard to sauté a little flour. This step will help thicken the sauce. Add the mustard and mix well, then deglaze with meat broth. Let the sauce boil for a few moments, stirring constantly, until it thickens slightly. Once the sauce is ready, pour it over the meat.
Add the sliced mushrooms that you previously sautéed in butter, and season with salt and pepper according to your preferences. Let everything simmer further so that the flavors combine. Finally, incorporate the sour cream, adding a creamy and rich note to the dish, and sprinkle with finely chopped parsley for an extra touch of freshness.
Serve this dish hot, alongside a seasonal salad or pickles, to perfectly complete the meal. This recipe is not only delicious but also easy to prepare, making it ideal for a family dinner or a special occasion.
