Ingredients
- 1 pound pork tenderloin
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons olive oil divided
- salt and black pepper to taste
Creamy Dijon Sauce
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 clove garlic minced
- ¾ cup chicken broth
- ¾ cup heavy whipping cream
- ½ teaspoon dry mustard powder
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- ½ teaspoon dried thyme leaves or two sprigs fresh thyme
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400° F. Line a baking sheet with foil.
- Combine dijon mustard and 1 tablespoon olive oil in a small bowl. Brush over pork tenderloin and season with salt & pepper.
- Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Brown the pork evenly, about 2-3 minutes per side, and transfer to the prepared baking sheet. Cook 18-20 minutes or until a thermometer reads an internal temperature of 145° F.
- While pork is cooking, add butter and garlic to the same pan and cook 1 minute or until garlic is fragrant. Add chicken broth and scrape up any brown bits.
- Stir in cream, mustard powder, dijon mustard, and thyme. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer until thickened, about 8-10 minutes. Remove from heat.
- Remove pork from the oven and rest for 5 minutes. Slice and serve with mustard sauce.
Notes
- Cook the sauce in a skillet. If cooked in a saucepan it will take too long to reduce and the sauce will not thicken.
- Use a thermometer and remove the pork from the oven when it reaches 145°F or just before.Allow your meat to rest before cutting.Do not overcook. Pork tenderloin is very lean, if overcooked it can become dry.Add some of the juices that escape from the tenderloin while it rests, add them to your mustard sauce for extra flavor.
