6 garlic cloves, pressed
1/4 cup olive oil
2 tablespoons coarsely chopped fresh rosemary
1 tablespoon coarsely chopped fresh thyme
8 whole allspice, crushed
2 (12-ounce) pork tenderloins
5 tablespoons Dijon mustard, divided
3/4 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup low-salt chicken broth
2 tablespoons chopped fresh tarragon

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Mix wine, garlic, oil, rosemary, thyme, and allspice in large resealable plastic bag. Add pork and turn to coat. Marinate at least 30 minutes and up to 1 hour, turning bag occasionally.
