Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • 1 Place pecans in a small skillet and toast over low heat for 3 to 4 minutes, until golden. Pour pecans into a small bowl and set aside.
  • 2 Spray an OVENSAFE NONSTICK skillet with cooking spray and brown pork on all sides. Transfer pan to oven and bake until cooked through, 20-25 minutes or until a thermometer registers 145 degrees.(Careful of the hot handle!) Transfer pork to a cutting board and let rest for a few minutes before slicing.
  • 3 While meat is resting, pour off any grease from the skillet, then add sugar, syrup, and butter. Bring to a boil over medium heat, scraping up any brown bits. Continue to cook, stirring, until thickened, about 5 minutes. Stir in pecans. Serve sliced tenderloin with pecan sauce.
