Tenderloin For Two With Peppercorn Cream Food

PORK TENDERLOIN WITH PEPPERCORN GRAVY

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425F.
• Prepare the pork tenderloin by removing the silver skin and any visible fat. Season with some salt and set aside.
• Heat an oven-proof skillet on the stove-top over medium-high heat. Add a splash of olive oil and heat. Add the pork tenderloin and cook, turning as needed, until it is seared and golden on all sides.
• Place skillet with the pork into the preheated oven and cook until the pork reaches an internal temperature of 145F, when measured in the thickest part of the meat, about 20-25 minutes.
• While pork is cooking, gather and measure out your sauce ingredients and have handy.
• Remove skillet from oven. Remove pork to to a cutting board to rest and loosely tent with a piece of aluminum foil.
• Place the hot skillet back on the stovetop over medium-high heat. To the skillet, add butter and melt, scraping up in bits in the bottom of the pan. Add the onions and peppercorns and stir until the onions are starting to colour, about 1 minute. Add the wine and cook, stirring, until mostly evaporated, about 1 minute. Add the broth, Dijon mustard and thyme. Reduce heat to medium and allow sauce to simmer/reduce for a few minutes to blend the flavours and reduce slightly. Add cream, if using and stir to combine and warm through. Taste the sauce and season with salt, as needed. To thicken the gravy, combine cornstarch and water in a small bowl, stirring until smooth. Add a bit at a time to your hot gravy, stirring well after each addition, until desired thickness is achieved.
• Cut pork tenderloin into slices and spoon hot gravy over-top, to serve.

PEPPERCORN ROASTED BEEF TENDERLOIN

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 475 degrees F.

• Press the crushed peppercorns all over the surface of the meat. Insert a meat thermometer and place in the oven until the beef registers 120 to 125 degrees F for medium-rare/rare. Beef will probably cook in 20 to 25 minutes depending on its temp before it goes in the oven.
• While the meat is roasting, melt the butter with the garlic in a small skillet, and allow the butter to slightly brown. Remove the garlic and discard.
• Remove the meat when it's done and pour the garlic butter over gently (it should sizzle when it hits the meat). Cover the meat loosely with foil and allow to rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
