Pork tenderloin is a versatile cut of meat that can be cooked in a variety of ways. One of the most popular methods is to pan-sear it and then finish it in a flavorful sauce. Mustard sage sauce is a classic pairing for pork tenderloin, and it's easy to make at home. The sauce is made with Dijon mustard, chicken broth, white wine, and fresh sage. It's creamy, tangy, and herbaceous, and it complements the mild flavor of the pork tenderloin perfectly.

MUSTARD-GLAZED PORK TENDERLOIN
This savory-sweet treatment for pork tenderloin was brought to The Times in 1989 by the inimitable Marian Burros. With just five ingredients - pork, brown sugar, whole-grain mustard, rosemary and sherry - you have an extremely simple though supremely satisfying dish. We like ours served with mashed sweet potatoes and a pile of sautéed greens, and the leftovers make great sandwiches.

PORK TENDERLOIN WITH SAGE & MARSALA SAUCE
The is from Fine Cooking, I've made it 2 or 3 times since finding it 3 weeks ago. I made the fried sage leaves the first time but they are more for decoration, so it's up to you. I also didn't use the pink peppercorns as I didn't have any. I also cook until the themometer reads 155-160 F. The marsala gives it a mild sweet flavor. Enjoy!

Tips:
- To ensure the pork tenderloin cooks evenly, use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature. It should reach 145 degrees Fahrenheit for medium-rare or 160 degrees Fahrenheit for medium.
- For a more flavorful sauce, use a good quality Dijon mustard. You can also add other herbs and spices to taste, such as thyme, rosemary, or garlic powder.
- If you don't have any fresh sage, you can use 1/2 teaspoon of dried sage. However, fresh sage will give the sauce a more intense flavor.
- This dish is best served immediately after cooking. However, you can keep the pork tenderloin warm in a low oven (200 degrees Fahrenheit) for up to 30 minutes.
