Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
Place peppercorns in a resealable bag; crush coarsely with a meat mallet or rolling pin.
Mix together salt, crushed peppercorns, thyme, rosemary and crushed red pepper flakes, in a bowl. Season pork with seasoning mix.
Heat a large heavy-bottomed oven-proof skillet over medium-high heat; add olive oil. Add pork; cook, turning as needed to brown the pork on all sides, about 5 minutes.
Transfer skillet to the oven; bake until cooked through (145 degrees F on a meat thermometer), 15 - 20 minutes. Transfer meat to a cutting board; tent with aluminum foil to rest.
Mustard cream sauce:
Return skillet to the stovetop over medium heat. Melt butter; add garlic, thyme and rosemary; cook for 1-2 minutes. Sprinkle on flour; cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Add cream; bring to a simmer; simmer until cream thickens slightly, about 2 minutes. Stir in mustard and parsley. Adjust seasoning to taste.
Slice the pork and arrange it on a platter. Spoon some sauce on top and sprinkle on chopped parsley. Pour remaining sauce in a gravy boat or serving bowl to serve on the pork.
