In cold weather, braised meat or a meat dish with accompanying sauce is the perfect choice, and this pork tenderloin recipe makes impressing your family or dinner date incredibly simple. Pork tenderloin is the most tender part of the animal — which makes your job easier — and I had the butcher at my local organic market cut it into 1/2-inch slices. Then just follow the recipe; prep time is 10 minutes and cooking time is 15 minutes. This recipe makes even a complete beginner look good! And, it’s easy to pair with wine.

Wine pairing:

I am a Pinot Noir lover, which goes well with pork and works fine for this recipe. But to take the flavors up a notch, I paired it with a Rhone Red Blend. This is usually based on three grapes, Grenache, Syrah and Mourvedre (also known as a GSM) but can sometimes include other Rhone varietals. These blends are typically described as having blackberry, leather and pepper notes, and go well with juicy, gamey meats as well as French-style spice blends, especially rosemary.
