- When onions are golden and soft remove ingredients from pan into separate dish, cover dish and set it in the microwave to stay warm.
- Keep pan on low to med heat and drizzle olive oil in pan.
- Place the medallions in the olive oil.
- Brush medallions with apple butter then sprinkle pepper on the medallion.
- Flip each medallion and brush the rest of the apple butter on the other side and sprinkle more pepper.
- Now the medallions should be covered in the apple butter and pepper on each side.
- Add a half cup of warm water and the rest of the red wine vinegar to the pan and cover, by adding the water to the medallions, they will stay moist.
- Turn over medallions when starting to brown.
- Cut open a medallion to determine whether it is done or not.
- Pork will look a little pink in the middle, it is not like chicken, but the meat should only be slightly pink, mostly white.
- When medallions are finished add them to the onions and mushrooms, then recover.
- There should be some juice still in the pan keep that on the heat and add the gravy mix.
- Slowly add the rest of the warm water to the pan and wisk together with a fork, the gravy should be smooth and not too thick.
- Add parsley and desired amount of salt and pepper.
- When the gravy is finished add all ingredients back into the pan and mix together, cover pan and let sit for a few minutes on low heat, this way all of the flavors infuse together.
- Serve a couple medallions topped with the mushroom, onion, gravy mix.
- Serving side suggestion: broil asparagus in olive oil and cracked pepper.
- Buttery garlic mashed potatoes are also a great flavor match.
