Step 1
Pat pork dry, season generously with salt and pepper on both sides.
Step 2
Heat 1 tbsp butter in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high until foaming. Sear pork 2 minutes per side until golden brown. Transfer to a plate.
Step 3
Add mushrooms and shallot to the skillet, cook until mushrooms soften and liquid evaporates, about 4 minutes.
Step 4
Pour wine into the skillet, scraping up any browned bits. Simmer until reduced by half, about 2 minutes.
Step 5
Stir in cream, mustard, and thyme. Slide pork back into the pan and simmer until pork reaches 145°F, about 2 minutes.
Step 6
Serve pork with sauce spooned over top. Garnish with fresh parsley if you have it.
