Honey Mustard Pork Loin and Potatoes

A couple of weeks back I posted a recipe for Marvelous Magnificent Honey Mustard Sauce.  Wasn't it yummy.  Have you dipped chicken tenders in it yet?  Handy hubby and I have.  I have even dipped Home Fries in it.  I posted a picture of the Glazed pork loin in the post.  I thought I better share that recipe with you, if for no other reason than it was tongue tickling yumminess.  And even better it is simple to make.  I buy my pork loin on sale.  Handy hubby and I then cut them down to smaller pork loin roast and pork chops.  Works out great for our budget.  I typically can get 20+ pork chops and a roast for $9 that way.

Glazed Honey Mustard Pork Loin with Potatoes. 
Getting about a teaspoon of EVOO warming in a skillet.  I used cast iron so it could go from the stove to the oven in the same pan, less dishes.  Then I minced 3 cloves of garlic and a medium yellow onion and tossed them into the skillet with the oil on a low to medium heat and let them do their thing while I am getting the pork loin ready.
I had some of my Marvelous Magnificent Honey mustard sauce ready to go in a cute little vintage Pyrex bowl.  I love the pouring handles on these.
I brushed a little bit of the Honey mustard on all the sides of the pork loin.  

I added the Pork loin into the skillet with the onions and garlic.  See how they have started getting some beautiful brown color.  Yum.  I turn the heat up to med high and seered the pork on the top and bottom. That brown coloring adds some good flavor, and some say it locks in the flavor and moisture.  
When it is all seered I pour the  rest of the honey mustard over the top and tossed the entire pan in the oven at 325 for 45 minutes or until the internal temp of the pork is 160.  Then I  served over roasted potatoes.  Made a yummy Sunday lunch.
