Over the years, I've found the trick to serving this tender pork with its mild onion-and-mushroom-flavored gravy is to fix enough— people tend to come back for seconds!

Ingredients

2 pork tenderloins (about 1 pound each)
3 tablespoons butter
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1 medium onion, thinly sliced
1-1/2 cups sliced fresh mushrooms
1/2 cup thinly sliced celery
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/2 cup chicken broth
Hot wild rice or noodles, optional

Directions

In a skillet, brown pork in butter. Transfer meat to an ungreased shallow 1-1/2-qt. baking dish. Sprinkle with salt and pepper; set aside. In the pan drippings, saute the onion, mushrooms and celery until tender. Combine flour and broth until smooth; add to skillet. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes. Pour over meat. Cover and bake at 325° for 1 hour or until a thermometer reads 160°-170°. Let stand 5 minutes before slicing. Serve with rice or noodles if desired.

Made this a second time. SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO much better than the first! Only things I did differently was not having any celery, and using marinated mushrooms, because tha's all we had. Also doubled the gravy. Definitely a keeper now!

This was absolutely succulent! I followed the recipe precisely, except I didn't have celery (but I added some celery seed for taste). Perfect--this will go into my frequent rotation.

Delicious recipe. I agree that the gravy needs to be doubled. I made it using 1 pork tenderloin and there was a perfect amount of gravy.

My family loved this. Served with brown rice as that is what I had in the cupboard. Next time I will double the gravy and add more mushrooms.
