Pork Loin Steaks in Dijon Marinade

Pork Loin Steaks in Dijon Marinade- a recipe for pan-fried pork loin steaks in a delicious marinade of Dijon mustard, lemon juice and honey.


Pork tenderloin isn't something we eat that often and I have no idea why. Probably one of those 'stuck in a rut' things. I sometimes think that online supermarket shopping encourages that, because you essentially shop from a list with no distractions.

I've recently been adding pork loin steaks to our order for something different and I have wanted to find the perfect marinade for them. This Dijon mustard marinade with a touch of honey is definitely it. It's peppery, slightly acidic and slightly sweet. It's SO good and it goes perfectly with pork. You just can't beat Dijon mustard for a meat marinade.

Main steps of the recipe:


Mix together the marinade ingredients in a large glass oven dish or a measuring jug.


If using the dish, lay the pork loin steaks on top and then turn them so they are well-coated. If not, lay them in the dish and pour the marinade over. Cover and pop in the fridge for up to 3 hours.


Heat a frying pan on quite a high heat and put the loin steaks in. Keep the leftover marinade to one side. Cook for 6 minutes on the first side. Flip them and cook for another 2 minutes on the second side.


Let them rest for 2 minutes.


Turn the heat down in the pan and allow to cool a little. Then pour the remaining marinade into the pan. Allow to simmer very gently for a minute or two, until it's starting to colour a little.


Pour the sauce over the steaks and serve! It's delicious with some new potatoes and broccoli.
