Instructions
- Step 1: Preheat oven to 425°F. In a small bowl, mix 3 tbsp olive oil, 1 tbsp fresh thyme leaves, 1 tbsp chopped fresh rosemary, 4 minced garlic cloves, 1 tsp salt, and 1/2 tsp black pepper. Rub this herb mixture all over the 1.5 lbs pork tenderloin.
- Step 2: Place the pork tenderloin on a roasting pan and roast for 20-25 minutes, turning once halfway through, until internal temperature reaches 145°F and the exterior is golden brown. Remove from oven and let rest for 10 minutes.
- Step 3: Meanwhile, place the roasting pan over medium heat on the stove, add 1/2 cup dry white wine, and scrape up any browned bits from the bottom. Simmer for 3-4 minutes until reduced by half.
- Step 4: Stir in 2 tbsp Dijon mustard and 1/3 cup heavy cream, cooking for 2 minutes until the sauce thickens and coats the back of a spoon.
- Step 5: Slice the rested pork tenderloin into 1/2-inch medallions, spoon the mustard sauce over the top, and serve warm.
