INGREDIENTS:
2 pork tenderloins
4 tablespoons Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon oil
2 tablespoons butter
2 shallots, minced
1 cup Marsala wine

generously with mustard. Oil a 9x13 inch baking dish.
2. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Arrange tenderloins in
pan, and brown the meat. Turn to brown evenly. Transfer meat to prepared
baking dish.
3. Bake in preheated oven for 20 minutes. Turn, and continue cooking for 20
minutes, or until desired doneness.
