Honey Butter Pork Tenderloin

List of Ingredients
4 Tablespoons butter
2 Tablespoons honey
1 & 1/2 lbs pork tenderloin, trimmed
1/2 teaspoon cajun seasoning
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
3/4 cup waterRecipe
Preheat oven to 375%.
In an large skillet ( I use a cast iron skillet w/ the raised ridges in bottom) but use what you have as long as it is oven-proof.
Heat butter and honey over medium heat until melted. Sprinkle tenderloin with cajun seasoning and black pepper. Brown each side for 5 minutes in the honey butter. Lower heat if honey begins to burn.
After all sides are browned, place skillet w/ the tenderloin in the oven and roast for 15-20 minutes, depending on how you like your roast, pink inside or more done.Remove skillet from oven and transfer the pork to a plate.
Cover with foil. Add the water to the skillet and stir over medium heat. Simmer for about 5-7 minutes, until sauce is reduced slightly. Slice tenderloin on the diagonal and drizzle sauce over top to serve.
NOTE: May need to cook longer in oven depending on size and thickness of the pork tenderloin.
Do not be alarmed if sauce is really dark. I found this on line and my family loves it.
The grandchildren loves the meat in a roll. This is really good and takes NO TIME to fix for a quick supper!
