Ingredients
2 t. Dijon mustard
1 T. chopped fresh sage
1 1/4 lb. pork tenderloin
3 ripe firm pears, peeled and cut into 8 wedges
1/4 cup maple syrup
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 450F.
In a bowl, combine mustard and sage. Season the pork with salt and pepper and cover with mustard mixture. Transfer pork to a lightly oiled shallow baking pan. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until an instant-read thermometer reaches 155 degrees.
Meanwhile, in a large, lightly oiled skillet over medium-high heat, saute pears for 5 minutes, or until lightly browned. Reduce heat to low and add maple syrup. Simmer for 10 minutes, or until pears are tender, stirring occasionally. Let pork rest for 5 minutes before slicing. Serve with pears.

I’ve done this with butterfly porkchops, because a pork tenderloin is just too much food for the two of us. I cut the cooking time on the pears by about 5 minutes, because I prefer them a bit crisper. I really like the taste combination of the mustard and the maple — it sounds disgusting when you think about it, but it tastes so good.
