  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Peel, trim, and cut carrot into 1/2" pieces.

    Peel and mince shallot.

    Trim woody ends off asparagus.

    Drain green peppercorns.

    Pat pork tenderloin dry, and season all over with 1/2 tsp. salt and a pinch of pepper.

  2. 2

    Sear the Pork Tenderloin

    Place a medium non-stick pan over medium-high heat.

    Add 1 tsp. olive oil and pork tenderloin to hot pan. Sear until well-browned on two sides, 2-3 minutes per side.

    Transfer pork tenderloin to one side of prepared baking sheet.

    Reserve pan; no need to wipe clean.

  3. 3

    Finish the Pork Tenderloin and Asparagus

    Add asparagus to empty half of baking sheet. Spray asparagus with cooking spray and season with a pinch of salt and pepper. Spread into a single layer on their half of baking sheet.

    Roast in hot oven until asparagus is tender and pork tenderloin reaches a minimum internal temperature of 145 degrees, 12-15 minutes.

    Rest pork at least 5 minutes, then cut into 1/2" slices.

    While pork roasts, make carrot mash.

  4. 4

    Mash the Carrot

    Add carrot to boiling water and cook until tender, 10-12 minutes.

    Drain carrot in a colander and return to pot. Add butter and mash until fairly smooth. Season with 1/4 tsp. salt and a pinch of pepper.

    Set aside and keep warm.

  5. 5

    Make the Sauce

    Return pan used to sear pork to medium heat and add 1 tsp. olive oil. Add half the shallot (or more, if you love shallot) to hot pan and stir occasionally, 1 minute.

    Add sherry and bring to a boil. Boil, 30 seconds.

    Stir in cream, green peppercorns, demi-glace, and 1/4 tsp. pepper. Return to a boil and stir constantly until creamy, 1-2 minutes.

    Remove from burner and season with a pinch of salt.

    Plate dish as pictured on front of card, shingling pork over sauce. Bon appétit!
