Recipe of the week

This is a tasty meal that I fix often for our family! Hope you enjoy it.

Pork Medallions in Mustard Sauce

Pork:
1-2 pounds pork tenderloin
2-3 Tbsp coarse-grain mustard
1 Tbsp olive oil
Place above in zip-lock back and let marinate for up to 24 hours (sometimes I remember to do this, sometimes I don't).
Put pork tenderloin in a baking dish and bake at 450 degrees F for 15 minutes.
Reduce heat to 400 degrees F and back another 15 minutes or until meat themometer registers 160 degrees F.
Let stand 5 minutes before slicing. Serve with mustard sauce, yellow rice and steamed veggies! *note - I use a rice cooker with a steamer and then the meal is practically a "set-it & forget-it" meal.

Mustard Sauce:
16 oz (2 cups) whipping cream
1/3 cup coarse-grain mustard
1/4 tsp salt
1/8 tsp pepper
Cook cream in a saucepan over med-high head for 20 minutes or until reduced to 1 1/2 cups. Do not boil! Stir in remaining ingredients and cook for 1 minute. Serve warm or put in the fridge to chill and thicken. It's good both ways so save some for leftovers! You could always make this the morning of and have it cooling/thickening for dinner.

Enjoy!
