Honey Butter Pork Tenderloin


4 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons honey
1 1/2 lbs pork tenderloins, trimmed of silver skin
salt
pepper
1/4 cup water

  • Preheat oven to 375.
  • In a dutch oven or ovenproof skillet, heat the butter and honey over medium heat, stirring to melt butter.
  • Season the pork with 1/2 tsp salt and 1/2 tsp pepper and place in pan.
  • Cook until underside is lightly browned, about 5 minutes.
  • Turn pork, and cook until other side is browned, about 5 min more. Lower the heat if the honey begins to burn.
  • Put the pan in the oven, and roast until the pork is just cooked through, 7 to 10 minutes.
  • Transfer the pork to a plate and cover with foil to rest.
  • Add the water to the pan, and stir over medium heat to scrape up all the browned bits.
  • Add any pork juices from the plate, and simmer until sauce is reduced to about 1/2 cup. 
  • Slice the pork on the diagonal and served drizzled with the sauce.
