- 2 tbsp Butter

👨🍳 Instructies
- 1
Pat the pork medallions dry with paper towels. In a shallow dish, combine flour, salt, and pepper. Dredge each pork medallion in the flour mixture, shaking off excess.
- 2
Heat butter and olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the pork medallions for 3-4 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through. Remove pork from skillet and set aside.
- 3
Reduce heat to medium. Add chopped shallots to the skillet and sauté until softened, about 3-4 minutes. Add minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
- 4
Stir in the chopped prunes, red wine, broth, brandy (if using), honey, cinnamon, and bay leaf. Bring the sauce to a simmer, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan.
- 5
Let the sauce simmer gently for 10-15 minutes, or until it has thickened slightly and the prunes have softened. Remove the bay leaf.
- 6
Return the pork medallions to the skillet and spoon the plum sauce over them. Simmer for another 2-3 minutes to heat the pork through and allow the flavors to meld.
- 7
Serve the pork medallions hot, generously topped with the plum sauce. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired.
