Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb pork tenderloin
  • 2 tbsp Dijon mustard
  • 1 cup fresh rhubarb, chopped
  • 2 tbsp granulated sugar
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 tsp fresh thyme leaves

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Pat the pork tenderloin dry with paper towels.
  2. In a small bowl, mix Dijon mustard, minced garlic, olive oil, salt, pepper, and thyme leaves to create a marinade.
  3. Coat the pork tenderloin generously with the marinade and let it sit for 30 minutes at room temperature.
  4. Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and sear each side of the tenderloin for about 3-4 minutes until golden brown.
  5. Transfer the seared pork to a baking dish and bake for 20-25 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C).
  6. While the pork bakes, combine chopped rhubarb, sugar, and a splash of water in a saucepan over medium heat. Cook until rhubarb softens (about 10 minutes), stirring occasionally.
  7. Let the pork rest for five minutes before slicing. Serve drizzled with rhubarb sauce.
