For a richer flavor, consider using a hickory-smoked bacon.
Ensure the skillet is truly oven-safe before transferring it to the oven. Otherwise, transfer the seared medallions to a baking sheet.
A meat thermometer is highly recommended to ensure the pork is cooked to a safe internal temperature without overcooking.
Serve with roasted vegetables or a side salad for a complete meal.

    I added a touch of brown sugar to the seasoning mix for a little sweetness. It was a hit!
