Step-By-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (204°C). Pat the pork tenderloin dry and season with salt and pepper.
  2. In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Sear the pork for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden-brown.
  3. Remove the pork, then deglaze the pan with chicken broth, scraping up browned bits.
  4. Add minced garlic to broth; stir. Pour in heavy cream and Dijon mustard, whisking and simmering for 3-5 minutes until thickened.
  5. Return the pork to the skillet, spoon sauce over it, and roast for 10-15 minutes until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C).
  6. Let the pork rest for 5 minutes, slice, garnish with herbs, and serve with creamy Dijon sauce.
