Pork Tenderloin With Molasses Mustard Sauce - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    3/4 lb pork tenderloin
    1/4 cup molasses (I use blackstrap, but you could use light)
    3 tablespoons apple cider vinegar, divided
    2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
    2 tablespoons coarse grain mustard
    1 tablespoon olive oil
Preparation
    Marinade: In a small bowl combine the molasses, 2 tbsp vinegar, and mustards.
    Place pork in sip top bag and pour marinade over.
    Refrigerate for 4 hours (can be made the morning of and marinaded longer).
    Cook: Preheat oven to 400\u00b0F.
    Drain the marinade into a small saucepan, set aside.
    Heat the oil in a large heavy skillet over medium high heat.
    Lightly brown the tenderloin on all sides, about 5 minutes total.
    Place on a roasting pan in the oven for 12-15 minutes or until thermometer reads 140\u00b0F.
    Remove from oven and place a loose foil tent over the meat.
    Let rest 5 minutes.
    In the small saucepan, add the remaining 1 tbsp vinegar to the marinade.
    Bring to a boil and reduce to a thick sauce consistency, about 1 minute.
    Serve pork thinly sliced with sauce drizzled over top.
