I got this recipe back in the 1980's from 'Cooking Light' magazine. This is
what we had for dinner last night. Very simple and delicious!

Two (approx.) 1/2 lb. each pork tenderloins*
Dijon mustard
2 tsp. rubbed sage
1-2 cloves garlic, minced (I use 2)
dash or two of salt (optional)
1/4 tsp. pepper
1 c. whole wheat breadcrumbs

*they come together in one package at my supermarket

Preheat oven to 400F. Combine breadcrumbs, sage, garlic, salt & pepper.
Brush the pork generously with dijon mustard. Roll the meat in the seasoned
breadcrumbs. Loosely wrap each tenderloin in foil and place on a baking
sheet. Bake about 30 minutes or until internal temperature reaches 140F.
Remove from oven and let the meat stand for about 10 minutes (the
temperature will continue to rise). Slice (about 1/2 inch thick) and serve.

More thinly sliced, this makes for excellent hot pork sandwiches on a nice
onion or other soft roll

Sounds great (and easy--that's *my* kind of cooking). Thanks.

What if you didn't wrap it in foil? Total cooking time might increase
a little, but wouldn't the coating stay crunchier? Seems to me
wrapping in foil promotes steaming, which promotes soggier crumbs. -

Similar to the method I described in the original post, you may also brush
the pork tenderloins with olive oil. Season with salt, pepper and garlic
and lay strands of fresh rosemary alongside. Again wrap loosely in foil and
bake, approx. 30 minutes. It's another method described in that magazine of
my yesteryear

Why bother with the foil? Try this one:

Heh, I made something very similar last week except the apple was
sliced and I didn't use vinegar or sugar. I highly recommend taking a
clue from the recipe you posted and just "going with it" because
apples and pork are a match made in heaven.

I don't remember what recipe inspired my dinner, but here are a couple
of suggestions -

Why bother with foil? I don't know. But hey, the recipe (both the original
with sage-crumb coating and the one with rosemary and garlic) has worked for
me for 25 years so who am I to question it?

Quite! If it works don't change it! I've never used foil with similar
recipes and, of course, that works for me. A few weeks ago I roasted a
fillet coated with a honey/grainy mustard mix and a few days later I just
rubbed olive oil over one and then rolled it in one of those Mediterranean
herb mixes one sees in fancy foody-type shops. Both were good.
My Mother used to wrap a fillet around a sage and onion stuffing and tie it
with string before roasting.
