Instructions:

1. Prepare the Herb Mixture:
- In a small bowl, combine the chopped rosemary, olive oil, minced garlic, salt, pepper, and mustard. Mix well until you have a fragrant, well-blended paste.
2. Preheat the Oven:
- Set your oven to preheat at 375°F (190°C).
3. Season the Pork Fillets:
- Rinse the pork fillets under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels. Place the fillets on a cutting board and rub the rosemary and mustard mixture evenly over the entire surface of each fillet, making sure they are well coated.
4. Marinate (Optional):
- If you have time, let the pork fillets marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. This step is optional but recommended for a more intense flavor.
5. Sear the Pork:
- Heat a large oven-proof skillet over medium-high heat. Add a small amount of olive oil to the skillet if needed. Once the skillet is hot, add the pork fillets and sear each side for about 2-3 minutes, or until they are golden brown.
6. Bake the Pork:
- Transfer the skillet with the pork fillets to the preheated oven. Bake for about 15-20 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the pork reaches 145°F (63°C). The fillets should be juicy and slightly pink in the center.
7. Rest the Pork:
- Once the pork is cooked, remove the skillet from the oven and let the fillets rest for about 5 minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, making it more tender.
8. Slice and Serve:
- Slice the rested pork fillets into medallions and arrange them on a serving platter. Garnish with additional rosemary sprigs if desired. Serve immediately with your favorite sides. Enjoy your flavorful Pork with Rosemary and Mustard Crust!

Tips:

- : For best results, choose fresh rosemary and high-quality mustard. Fresh herbs provide more vibrant flavors as compared to dried.

- : Allow the pork to sit at room temperature for about 20-30 minutes before cooking. This ensures more even cooking.

- : Using a meat thermometer helps achieve the perfect level of doneness. For pork fillets, an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C) is ideal.

- : Let the pork rest for 5-10 minutes after cooking. This allows the juices to redistribute and makes for a more tender meat.

- : Be generous with the seasoning. Since pork has a mild flavor, it can benefit from a good amount of salt and pepper.

And there you have it—Pork with Rosemary and Mustard Crust that’s both flavorful and elegant. Serve it alongside your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables or mashed potatoes, and you’ve got yourself a fantastic meal.
