Pork Tenderloin Creamy Herb Sauce Pinterest

Easy stove-top pork tenderloin or pork loin with creamy herb sauce is packed with flavors, white wine, Cognac, various aromatic herbs and cream, flavorful to the max! A delicious recipe for entertaining!

Pork tenderloin is easy and quick to make, it’s a very tender and juicy cut that is cooked in about 40 minutes, it’s the cut of choice to serve when entertaining, same with pork loin that can also be used for this recipe. Both can be cooked a few hours in advance and re-heated 15 minutes before serving.

I always prefer to cook pork tenderloin in a high sided frying pan on the stove top, I get a better sear and cooking control as pork can become a little dry when overcooked. Pork tenderloin needs to be seared a few minutes on all sides, then cooked through on lower heat for about 30 minutes.

The creamy herb sauce is very aromatic, it is made with a mix of herbs of Provence and lots of parsley cooked with a little bit of mustard, cognac, white wine and cream, so delicious, one of my favorite sauces!

Into a high sided frying pan, on medium/high heat, heat about 2 to 3 tbsp. olive oil and a tbsp. butter, add the tenderloin and sear on all sides, about 3 minutes per side, reduce the heat to medium, cover with a lid or a piece of aluminum foil, cook for about 40 minutes, set aside on a plate

Make the sauce:

Into the same pan, on medium/high heat, add some olive oil if needed, add the chopped shallots and cook until translucent

Add the garlic and aromatic herbs, mustard, cognac and white wine, also the meat juices in the tenderloin plate, stir and cook away until the wine is reduced to half, add salt, pepper and Cayenne to taste

Enjoy!

Pork is one of my all time favorite proteins to serve for guests! Like you said it is always juicy and tender, if not overcooked! I must try your sauce here, Patty! Sounds delicious!

The thick creamy sauce full of herbs sounds really good. I'm sure it must be tasting awesome with pork tenderloin. I guess the creamy sauce can be served with chicken and pasta too.

I love using pork tenderloin as it always works well for a dinner party. With the cream, wine and cognac the sauce sounds delicious and the great colour from the herbs is a lovely contrast too.
