Here is a very easy recipe that gets raves. It is easily doubled. I have recently been doubling the sauce ingredients (onions, wine/vermouth, cream, dijon) so we have enough to add to the rice too. It's important not to overcook the pork -- it should still be slightly pink inside.
If your grocery stocks Far East rice mixes, the one with rice and orzo is very good with this dish. Otherwise, brown rice with a little finely diced carrot and sauteed onion is good. Asparagus is a great vegetable to serve with it - cook them until barely done, then toss with butter and your favorite seasoning to finish. (I love Cavendar's Greek Seasoning)

Pork Tenderloin with Dijon Cream
Serves: 2

Prep time: 15 min
Cook time: 15 min
1# pork tenderloin, cut into 2" slices
Seasoned flour
2 Tbl. butter, divided
2 tsp. canola or olive oil
2 green onions, thinly sliced (coin shape), white and green parts separated
1/3 cup white wine or dry vermouth
1/2 cup heavy cream
1 tsp. Dijon mustard (or more to taste)
salt and pepper to taste

Preheat oven to low, about 170 degrees F
Lightly pound pork medallions to 1" thick.
Melt 1 tablespoon of butter and 2 tsp. oil over medium high heat.
Dredge pork in seasoned flour. Add pork slices all at once to pan and saute 2 minutes per side.
Remove to a plate and hold in the oven while finishing the sauce. (pork will be a bit underdone but will finish in the oven.)
Add the remaining 1 tablespoon butter to pan.
Add white part of onion, saute for 1 minute.
Add wine or vermouth, simmer until syrupy and reduced to about 3 tablespoons.
Add cream, simmer 2 - 3 minutes until thickened.*
Stir in Dijon, add salt and pepper to taste.
Return pork to pan to coat with sauce. Serve over rice or pasta, garnishing with the green part of the onion.
*If sauce ends up too thick for your liking, add a little water or milk, but no more than 1/4 cup. You can double the sauce ingredients so there is enough to pour over rice.

Made this last night and it was DELICIOUS! Think I'll sautee some mushrooms with the onions next time.
Thank you again!
