Wonderful, S'kat! I didn't change anything, but I did use salt-cured capers, which I soaked then drained. The other addition I made (just a personal preference) was 2 tbl. heavy cream at the end to the sauce. Otherwise all the same. Very simple and quick to prepare, and very tasty! No leftovers at all. I served it with rice pilaf and some glazed carrots. Thanks for the quick recipe!

Really delicious! I followed the recipe exactly and was rewarded with a great dinner enjoyed by the family and a guest. This went well with crispy roasted potatoes and broccoli. I wouldn't change anything about this and will remember it next time I don't want to cook pork tenderloin in the oven. Thanks for posting it!
