Slice the pork tenderloin into 1-inch thick medallions and season both sides with salt and black pepper.
In a large skillet or saucepan, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
Add the pork medallions to the skillet and sear for 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown. Remove the medallions and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Pour in the canned crushed tomatoes and chicken broth. Stir in the dried oregano, dried basil, and red pepper flakes.
Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, then return the pork medallions to the skillet, nestling them into the tomato sauce.
Cover the skillet with a lid and let the pork simmer over low heat for 20 minutes, or until the pork is cooked through and tender.
Taste the sauce and adjust the seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed.
Serve the pork medallions with the tomato sauce spooned over the top. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving.
