Description
A delightful dish combining tender pork and a rich Dijon cream sauce, perfect for any occasion.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb pork tenderloin
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh herbs for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Season the pork tenderloin generously with salt and pepper.
- Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the pork on all sides until browned, about 2-3 minutes per side.
- Transfer the skillet to the oven and roast the pork for 15-20 minutes until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C).
- Return the skillet to the stove, add Dijon mustard and heavy cream, and stir to combine, cooking over low heat until warmed through, about 3-5 minutes.
- Remove the pork from the oven, let it rest for a few minutes, then slice and serve with the Dijon cream sauce drizzled over the top.
Notes
Searing the pork adds depth to the flavor. Use a meat thermometer for perfect doneness.
