ROAST PORK LOIN WITH CREAMY DIJON SAUCE



Roast Pork Loin With Creamy Dijon Sauce image

This is adapted from Miss Vickie's Big Book of Pressure Cooker Recipes. The original Recipe calls for more sour cream and flour, I reduced them to change the final sauce consistency to my personal preference. The Dijon gives the sauce a slight bite, and the roast is juicy, tender and perfectly done. Miss Vickie's directions specify not to remove the netting, but I find that removing it after cooking pulls off the brown crust, so I remove it and tie with kitchen string before browning.

Categories     Pork

Time 1h

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon butter
2 1/2 lbs boneless pork loin roast, net removed and retied with kitchen string
1 medium onion, chopped
3/4 cup white wine
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
1/2 cup sour cream
1 tablespoon flour

Steps:

  • In your pressure cooker, heat the oil and butter over medium heat.
  • Add the roast, and brown on all sides, then remove from the pressure cooker and set aside.
  • Add the onions, and cook for a few minutes, until they start to soften.
  • Add the wine and mustard to the onions, and stir to combine.
  • Place the roast back in the cooker, lock the lid, and raise the temperature to high.
  • Once the pot has reached 15psi, lower the heat (still maintaining pressure) and cook for 40 minutes.
  • Release the pressure, and carefully remove the roast from the pot. Cover it and keep in a warm place until the sauce is completed.
  • Skim any excess fat from the liquid in the pot, if needed, then bring back to a boil.
  • Combine the sour cream and flour in a small bowl, then remove the pot from the heat and add the sour cream mixture, whisking to form a sauce.
  • Serve the roast and sauce.

FISH WITH CREAMY DIJON SHRIMP SAUCE



Fish with Creamy Dijon Shrimp Sauce image

My family absolutely love this dish..two of their favorites in a creamy sour cream Dijon sauce. Our favorite versions are done using fresh tuna, mahi mahi, or salmon, with the fish being grilled on a charcoal grill. With the cold, wet weather today, I pan fried the fish in a little butter and I used tilapia. It is fairly quick to...

Categories     Seafood

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 15

24 large jumbo shrimp, peeled and deveined, tails removed
1 lb fresh or frozen fish fillets of choice, rinsed, patted dry, brought to room temperature
BASTING SAUCE
4 Tbsp butter, divided
1/2 tsp onion salt
1/2 tsp dried marjoram, crushed
1/2 tsp dried thyme, crushed
DIJON SAUCE
1/2 c sour cream
1 Tbsp all purpose flour
1 Tbsp dijon mustard (i use a coarse grain such as grey poupon)
1/8 tsp salt
1/8 tsp black pepper
1/4 tsp dried thyme, crushed
1/2 c chicken broth

Steps:

  • 1. Thaw fish if using frozen. Allow fish (either fresh or frozen) to come to room temperature. This makes for less time over the heat, helping to keep fish moist. Rinse and pat dry and lay on paper towels.
  • 2. Place 2 tablespoons of the butter and 1/2 tsp each of onion salt, dried marjoram and dried thyme in a small bowl. Cover with a paper towel and microwave for 30 seconds to a minute, until butter is melted.
  • 3. Brush top side of each fish fillet with half of the melted butter mixture and set aside.
  • 4. In a medium saucepan, heat enough water to cover the shrimp and bring the water to a boil. Add the shrimp. Once the water comes back to a boil, cook the shrimp for 2-1/2 to 3 minutes, just until they are done (don't overcook). Remove pan from heat and set aside. (the water will help keep the shrimp warm...so it is very important not to over cook the shrimp).
  • 5. In a small saucepan, combine the sour cream, flour, Dijon mustard, salt, pepper, and 1/4 tsp. thyme. Stir until smooth. Add chicken broth, stirring until well mixed. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally until thickened and bubbly. Cook and stir 1 minute more. Keep warm over very low heat, stirring occasionally. (When I first put this over the heat, I begin heating up my skillet for my fish, and the fish cooks while my sauce is coming up to a boil and thickening).
  • 6. While Dijon sauce is coming up to a boil, heat a large skillet coated lightly with cooking spray over medium heat. Add remaining 2 TBS butter. Once butter is melted, add fish fillets, basted side down, with the thickest portion toward the center of your pan. Baste the top with the remainder of the basting sauce. Depending on your fish choice and its thickness, cook the fish for 2 to 4 minutes, just until a nice light brown color. Carefully turn the fish over (with the thickest portion still in the center of your pan) and cook another 2 to 4 minutes, just until the fish flakes easily with a fork. Remove to serving plates. (My tilapia fillets were 1/2 inch thick at the most and about 4 ounces each. I cooked 2 minutes on one side, 3 minutes on the other and they were perfect.)
  • 7. Drain shrimp and stir into the Dijon sauce. Top each fillet with 6 shrimp each and some of the sauce. ENJOY!

CROCK POT ROAST PORK LOIN WITH CREAMY DIJON SAUCE



Crock Pot Roast Pork Loin With Creamy Dijon Sauce image

This is an adapted recipe prepared for the ZWT 8 France Crock Pot Challenge. The original recipe was IngridH's recipe #437150 #437150. I adapted this recipe to be used in a crock pot by adding some additional liquid, and using creme fraiche instead of sour cream. I used creme fraiche because it is more heat stable and doesn't curdle when added to hot liquids.
