Fennel-Rosemary Pan-Roasted Pork Tenderloins
Think of this dish as a weeknight version of Italian slow-roasted porchetta. Fennel seeds and herbs are ideal seasonings for the mild, subtly sweet flavor of pork tenderloin. Serve crusty bread or mashed potatoes alongside for soaking up the sauce.

Tip
Don't add the butter all at once when making the pan sauce. Whisking it in 1 piece at a time creates an emulsified sauce that's glossy and velvety. If the sauce breaks and the butter separates, drizzle in a few drops of water while swirling the pan until the sauce is once again shiny and emulsified.

Sooooo Tasty!
This dish was simple to make, and my pork was cooked correctly coming out of the oven. I followed the directions, and everything turned out just as the recipe said. I just finished eating it, and I want more! There is a very slight sweet taste mixed with all the spices, and I love it!

Very Delicious! I made this tonight as per the recipe. It was excellent! My mother and my boyfriend, and me, loved it! It was a little time consuming to mince the Rosemary, and fennel - I ended up using my spice coffee grinder to coarsely mince. Very good and I will definitely make this again!
The pork loin I used did take a little longer in the oven than the recipe said. I didn't cut it crosswise like suggested. I wasn't sure exactly what that meant. And the sauce really didn't thicken quickly. I ended up adding some Chia Seeds which work wonders for thickening.
