- 1.
- Heat 1-2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
- 2.
- Add the diced potatoes and season with salt and pepper.

- 8.
- Cook the medallions on each side until browned.
- 9.
- Add the lemon slices to the pork during the last 2 minutes of cooking.
- Now you are ready to serve!
- Since I cannot make an unbalanced meal, I always make sure to have a vegetable of some kind with each meal.
- To keep it simple, I serve this with a mixed green salad, but feel free to use any vegetable.
