Cooking Steps
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

  3. Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the pork for 3–4 minutes on each side until browned.
  4. Transfer the pork to the preheated oven and roast for 20–25 minutes, until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C).

  6. Deglaze the skillet with chicken broth, scraping up any browned bits. Simmer gently.
  7. Stir in heavy cream, Dijon mustard, and thyme; simmer for about 5 minutes until thickened.
  8. Remove the pork from the oven, let it rest for 5 minutes, then slice and serve drizzled with the sauce.
