Ingredients

• 1 lb. pork tenderloin
• 2 tbsp. canola oil divided
• 1 tbsp. chopped fresh rosemary
• 1 1/4 tsp kosher salt, divided
• 1 tsp black pepper, divided
• 12 oz. mixed fresh mushrooms, stemmed and coarsely chopped
• 1 cup sliced leeks
• 2 tbsp. chopped fresh parsley
• 2 tbsp. unsalted butter, divided
• 3/4 cup uncooked instant polenta
• 2 tbsp. plus 2 tsp shredded Parmesan

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 400. Pat pork dry; rub with 2 tsp oil. Stir together rosemary, 1/2 tsp salt and 1/2 tsp pepper in a small bowl; sprinkle over pork. Heat an ovenproof skillet over medium high. Add pork; cook until browned on all sides, about 4 minutes. Transfer skillet to oven; roast at 400 until cooked through, 14 to 16 minutes. Transfer pork to a cutting board, reserving drippings in skillet. Let pork rest 10 minutes.

2. While pork rests, add remaining 4 tsp oil to drippings in skillet; heat over medium-high. Add mushrooms, 1/2 tsp salt and remaining 1/2 tsp pepper; cook, stirring often, until mushrooms begin to brown, 4-5 minutes. Add leeks; cook, stirring often, until mushrooms are deeply browned and leeks are tender, about 6 minutes. Stir in parsley and 1 tbsp. butter until melted. Remove from heat; cover to keep warm.

3. Prepare polenta as directed. Whisk Parmesan, remaining 1 tbsp. butter, and remaining 1/4 tsp salt into warm polenta.

4. Cut pork into 12 slices. Spoon 1/2 cup polenta onto each of 4 plates; top each with 3 pieces of pork and 1/2 cup mushroom mixture.
