Heat olive oil in an oven-safe skillet over high heat until smoking. Sear pork tenderloins 2 minutes per side (rolling to sear all sides) until deeply golden all over — about 8 minutes total. Don't skip this step; the crust adds incredible flavor.

Brush the honey mustard mixture generously over the seared pork. Roast in the oven at 425°F for 12–15 minutes until the internal temperature reads 145°F — the USDA-safe temperature for pork, which keeps it slightly pink and incredibly juicy. Overcooking pork tenderloin is the #1 mistake.

Transfer pork to a cutting board and tent with foil for 5 minutes. Add butter to the hot pan and let it melt with any pan drippings for a quick sauce. Slice pork into medallions and serve with the pan sauce drizzled over.
