508 kcal. 44g protein. 25 min.

508 kcal. 44g protein. 25 minutes. the highest protein meal this week — from pork tenderloin and zucchini.

pork medallions have one rule: don't overcrowd the pan. two at a time, space between them, high heat. the crust takes 3 minutes per side. that's it.

the herb oil takes 2 minutes — fresh parsley, garlic, lemon juice, olive oil. it makes the plate taste like a restaurant.

this is what Orla suggested from a pork tenderloin, a zucchini, and fresh herbs. USDA-verified macros.

5/5 Edited to

One of my favorite ways to stay on track with high-protein meals is to focus on simple, fresh ingredients like pork tenderloin and zucchini. This recipe nails it by balancing a quick pan-sear method that creates a perfect crust on the pork while keeping it juicy inside. I find that not overcrowding the pan is key to getting that golden-brown finish, as the recipe suggests. Cooking two medallions at a time ensures each piece crisps up nicely without steaming. The zucchini ribbons add a wonderful texture contrast, especially when you lightly char them instead of overcooking. They retain a slight crunch and have a smoky sweetness that pairs amazingly with the pork. Adding the vibrant herb oil made with parsley, garlic, lemon, and olive oil elevates the dish and makes it taste more refined—perfect for impressing guests even on a weeknight. I appreciate that the macros are USDA-verified, making it easier to track nutrition precisely. The total of 44g protein per serving supports muscle maintenance and recovery, making this meal ideal for anyone active or focused on fitness. Plus, at just 508 calories, it fits well within a calorie-controlled diet. In my experience, prepping the zucchini into ribbons ahead and having the herb oil ready saves time during cooking. This dish truly feels like a restaurant meal but is super convenient to prepare in about 25 minutes. For anyone looking to add more high-protein, low-carb options to their weekly rotation, this recipe ticks all the boxes for taste, nutrition, and ease.
