Pork tenderloin with a sweet-and-savory mahogany-colored sauce
is both elegant and easy–ideal for a casual get-together.
Make It a Meal: Serve with quick-cooking barley, roasted
delicata squash and a Pinot Noir.
3 Tbsp Dijon mustard, divided
1/2 tsp kosher salt
1/2 tsp freshly ground pepper
1 lb pork tenderloin, trimmed of fat
2 tsp canola oil
1/4 cup cider vinegar
2 Tbsp maple syrup
1 1/2 tsp chopped fresh sage
1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
2. Combine 1 tablespoon mustard, salt and pepper in a small bowl;
rub all over pork. Heat oil in a large ovenproof skillet over
medium-high heat. Add pork and brown on all sides, 3 to 5 minutes.
Transfer the pan to the oven and roast until an instant-read
thermometer inserted in the center registers 145 degrees F,
about 15 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board and let rest for
5 minutes.
3. Place the skillet over medium-high heat (take care, the handle
will still be hot), add vinegar, and boil, scraping up any browned
bits with a wooden spoon, about 30 seconds. Whisk in maple syrup
and the remaining 2 tablespoons mustard; bring to a boil, reduce
heat to a simmer and cook until the sauce is thickened, about
5 minutes.
4. Slice the pork. Add any accumulated juices to the sauce along
with sage. Serve the pork topped with the sauce.

Recipe reviews:
Delicious! Simple to make and tasty enough for any company meal.
I placed several slices of the tenderloin over a mound of barley
and drizzled it with the sauce. Made roasted red pepper quarters
in the same oven. Enjoyed my cup of tea and a book while dinner
cooked. Made it twice last month.- Anonymous
The whole family loved this. The sauce had sort of a sweet ‘n sour
quality. Very quick and easy to make.- leora Edwardsville, IL
