  3. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season the pork with half the salt and half the black pepper, then sear 3 to 4 minutes until browned but not cooked through. Scatter the pork over the vegetables in the dish.
  4. In the same skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the onion and mushrooms and cook 6 minutes until the mushrooms are browned. Stir in the garlic and thyme for 30 seconds.
  5. Sprinkle the flour over the vegetables and stir 1 minute. Slowly whisk in the vegetable broth, then the milk, and simmer, stirring, 3 to 4 minutes until thick and creamy. Stir in the mustard and the remaining half of the salt and black pepper.
  6. Pour the creamy vegetable sauce evenly over the pork and vegetables in the dish.
  7. In a small bowl, mix the Parmesan with the breadcrumbs and scatter over the casserole.
  8. Bake 25 minutes until bubbling and the topping is golden, and the pork reaches 145°F (63°C) inside. Rest 5 minutes, then sprinkle with the parsley and serve.
