PORK TENDERLOIN CORDON BLEU

Steps:

• If you have a butcher, ask him to "T-bone" the tenderloin, otherwise: With a sharp knife cut the tenderloin lengthwise and stop about 1/2 inch before cutting all the way through.
• Turn the knife to the side and cut each side to within 1/2 inch.
• Place the tenderloin between two pieces of wax paper and flatten with a meat pounder until about 1/4 inch thick.
• Flatten the chicken breast until is is very thin.
• Lay the tenderloin out flat, brush with Dijon mustard, then sprinkle with seasoned salt.
• Place chicken breast on the tenderloin and sprinkle with chicken seasoning.
• Lay the Swiss cheese on the chicken breast.
• Roll up and tie or skewer to hold together.
• Dip the rolled tenderloin in flour, then dip in eggs, then roll in bread crumbs.
• Bake at 350-375°F for one hour or until done.
• Slice into 1-inch slices and serve.
• I like to serve with asparagus and candied sweet potatoes.

PERFECT PORK TENDERLOIN

Steps:

• For the pork tenderloin: Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Place the peppercorns in a resealable bag and crush them coarsely with a meat mallet or rolling pin.
• Mix together the salt, peppercorns, thyme, rosemary and crushed red pepper, if using, in a bowl. Season the pork with the seasoning mix.
• Heat a large heavy-bottomed skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil. Add the pork and cook, turning as needed to brown the pork all over, about 5 minutes. Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake until cooked through (145 degrees F on a meat thermometer), 15 to 20 minutes. Transfer the pork to a cutting board and tent with foil to rest.
• For the herby mustard cream sauce: Return the skillet to the stovetop over medium heat. Melt the butter, then add the garlic, thyme and rosemary and cook for a minute or two Sprinkle over the flour and cook, stirring, for an additional minute. Add the cream and bring to a simmer. Simmer until the cream thickens slightly, about 2 minutes. Stir in the whole-grain mustard and parsley. Taste and adjust the seasoning as needed.
• Slice the pork and shingle it onto a platter. Spoon some of the sauce over the top and sprinkle over some chopped parsley. Transfer the remaining sauce to a sauceboat or serving bowl and serve alongside the pork.
