1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoons red currant jelly or 2 tablespoons black currant jelly
1 teaspoon brown sugar
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard

  • Transfer to plates or a platter and keep warm.
  • Add remaining 1 tsp oil to the skillet.

But I used this recipe the first time I ever cooked pork tenderloin and it's become a recipe I use again and again as a favorite!
