There are three secrets to juicy pork medallions:
- Do not grease the pan with oil;
- fry on high heat;
- do not salt the meat before frying. Put the meat in a hot pan and fry for no longer than 30 seconds on each side, then the medallions will turn out tender and ruddy. We put the finished medallions in a deep bowl, sprinkle with salt, and start preparing the sauce in a pan. We cut onions and apples. Heat the olive oil, fry the onion and apples in it until golden brown. Mix a quarter cup of apple juice and a teaspoon of apple cider vinegar (can be replaced with apple cider), pour into a pan. When the apple sauce thickens, return the fried medallions to the pan, pour the juice from the bowl that the meat has managed to give, mix. Stew the meat in apple sauce over the lowest heat for 2-3 minutes. Pork medallions can be served without a side dish, with slices of fresh apple, mint leaves and sauce.

- olive oil 1-2 tbsp. spoons
- salt
- black pepper
For the thyme sauce
- thyme 15-20 g
- olive oil 30 g (6 tablespoons)
- lemon juice 30-35 g (5-6 tablespoons)
- garlic 2-3 cloves
- sea salt 2-2.5 teaspoons
Cooking
First, let's prepare the thyme sauce. I made the sauce to my taste, it turns out salty and rather sour. You can add a little less or a little more salt, garlic and lemon juice depending on your taste.
Wash thyme, dry. We separate the leaves from the stems, to do this, squeeze the twig from above with two fingers and draw along the twig from the top to the base, all the leaves should remain on your fingers.
Grind thyme leaves with salt and olive oil in a mortar. When I was cooking, I did not have a mortar, I ground thyme in a glass bowl, and used a wooden rolling pin handle as a pestle.
Add chopped garlic and lemon juice to the sauce, again carefully grind everything.
The thyme sauce is ready.
Cooking chicken medallions
Lightly beat the chicken fillet through cling film. We don’t need to beat it very hard, we just need to slightly level the fillet in thickness.
Using a culinary ring, cut out the medallions. If you do not have a ring, then using a mug or something round, mark the shape of the future medallion on the fillet, and then cut out the medallions according to the markings with a sharp knife. From the remaining meat, you can boil or fry pieces, just like medallions, but do not serve them to the table, but eat them on the sly from everyone, because, of course, they will not look very presentable, but the taste should not differ.
Lubricate each medallion with olive oil, salt, pepper with black pepper or a mixture of peppers on both sides.
We spread the medallions on a very hot grill pan, which does not need to be lubricated with oil, just the oil with which we greased the medallions is enough. You can probably use a regular frying pan, but I haven't tried it.
Fry the medallions for 1-2 minutes on each side until golden brown. In the same pan, you can fry lubricated with olive oil and salted vegetables, which will be an excellent side dish for our dish. I fried sliced sweet orange pepper and tomato.
We spread the medallions on plates, pour over the thyme sauce and serve immediately. Chicken medallions with thyme sauce are ready. Bon appetit!
