1 pork tenderloin (1 pound)
2 teaspoons Montreal steak seasoning
2 tablespoons butter
1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
1/4 cup crumbled blue cheese

I make pork medallions quite often. I love this blue cheese sauce!!! I also love a lemon and grainy mustard sauce.

We loved this recipe! Never, ever had bleu cheese on pork, but I'm so glad I decided to try this recipe. I did not use the heavy cream; rather, I used plain Greek yogurt thinned a bit with half & half. I also used 1 tablespoon butter and 1 tablespoon olive oil. I did flatten the pieces to make them more uniform. Thanks, Lynne for your company pleasing recipe.
