Burgundy Pork Tenderloin



















This is one of the best pork dishes I've made. Another very simple recipe that is wonderful! I got this one from allrecipes.com

Ingredients:
  • 2 pounds pork tenderloin (mine was like 1 1/2 lbs)
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 stalk celery, chopped (I omitted this)
  • 2 cups red wine
  • 1 (.75 ounce) package dry brown gravy mix
  • 2 cloves garlic, sliced thin (something i added to the recipe)
Directions:
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Place pork in a 9x13 inch baking dish, and sprinkle meat with salt, pepper and garlic powder. Make slits in the meat, and slide the slices of garlic into them. Top with onion and celery, and pour wine over all.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 45 minutes.
  • When done baking, remove meat from baking dish, and place on a serving platter. Pour gravy mix into baking dish with wine and cooking juices, and stir until thickened. Slice meat, and cover with the gravy.
The garlic I added inside the meat gave it a wonderful flavor. I made this with mashed potatoes. Excellent. The pork was very tender.
