Makes 4 servings

Pork tenderloin with a sweet-and-savory mahogany-colored sauce is both elegant and easy--ideal for a casual get-together. Adapted from eatingwell.com. Dijon mustard, kosher salt, freshly ground pepper, pork tenderloin, canola oil, cider vinegar, maple syrup, fresh sage cvt

Ingredients
45 g (3 tablespoons) Dijon mustard, divided (75534)
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
14 oz (roasted) pork tenderloin, net from 1 pound fresh, trimmed of fat
2 teaspoons canola oil
1/4 cup cider vinegar
2 tablespoons maple syrup
1/2 teaspoon dried sage or 1 1/2 teaspoons chopped fresh sage 11297
Directions
  1. Preheat oven to 425°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°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.
