Directions

Here's my all-time favorite - from the San Antonio Herb Society Cookbook: (Fran Rich, adapted from Betty Crocker's Southwest Cooking) This is absolutely delicious, and it always gets raves when I serve it to guests.

With hands, spread mustard over pork tenderloin. Heat oil and garlic in 10-inch skillet until hot. Cook pork in oil over medium heat until brown.

Stir in remaining ingredients. Heat to boiling; reduce heat, cover and simmer until pork is done, about 30 minutes. Remove bay leaf.

Serves 4 - 6.
