Everyone needs an easy and elegant option for a special occasion dinner – this gorgeous Pork Tenderloin with a peppery crust and simple pan sauce is one of the most requested for birthdays and celebrations at our house. My recipe for Pork Tenderloin with Sauce Poivrade is just the thing when you have company, too, and it’s easy enough to knock out on a weekday.

Cheater’s Demi-Glace, Cook’s Illustrated
Awhile back I posted a bit of a cheater’s recipe for the Black Pelican’s Citrus Rosemary Brined Chicken. I saw it on Diner’s Drive Ins and Dives and just had to recreate it. When I made it, I simplified things just a bit; I used a boneless breast and served it with the Vegetable Saute. It was fantastic.
