This is a good basic recipe. I made a few changes to it so I can't base my rating on the original recipe. I added garlic and chopped onions to the carrots, used half heavy cream and half water because I didn't have light cream, and I doubled the gravy/sauce part of the recipe. Next time I make this I will add mushrooms. My very picky family loved the flavors and have requested that I make this recipe again. Thank you for a good recipe!

My teenager, who hates when I try new recipes, actually liked this. Hurray! It really took only 45 minutes from start to sit-down as the recipe states. I didn't add wine (didn't have any) and used skim milk instead of cream because it's all I had. I used fresh basil and parsley instead of dried. The sauce, though thin as you would expect, was delicious! The fresh herbs were very flavourful and the carrot base is so great. Thank you for a quick, easy, and tasty tenderloin recipe! I'll definitely make this again.

I'm so happy this recipe has such good reviews because I would hate my three star rating to affect that. Personally, I had to jump thru hoops in order to make this sauce flavorful. As written it was quite bland, so I added garlic and onion powders, chives, like "Ruth," dijon mustard and finally I decided to throw in a bit of fortified wine to offset the milky taste. I must say the end result was very good and my family truly enjoyed it. Thank you for a good starting point!

This was delicious. I doubled the sauce ingredients, but not the spices and it was plenty herby enough. This is one recipe that we are sure to make over and over.

I like cream sauces so I thought this recipe was good. I did tweak it a bit: sautéd onions and garlic instead of carrots, used milk and a bit of sugar instead of cream and then added a bit more flour to thicken, 1 tsp. basil instead of 1 Tbsp. Added a bit of salt too.

I made this for the first time for Easter Dinner. It was a HUGE!! hit with everyone. Very simple to make yet so elegant it appears you cooked for hours. I only added some minced garlic & minced onion..it turned out Terrific. You gotta make this one :)

While the flavor of the sauce was excellent, for our tastes, it was a little heavy for such a tender, delicate cut of meat. We liked the sauce so much that we have since used it on bonless chicken and the meal was fantastic. Nothing wrong with the recipe just our tastes.. Thanks.

This is one of the best recipes I've ever tried from AR, and at this point I've eaten over 300 of them! It's a company-worthy dish that is very easy to prepare. I planned to make it exactly as written, but in the middle of preparation I discovered I had no basil (HOW did that happen???) and I substituted Italian Seasoning. I liked the result so well I will probably go that route in the future. I served it over penne, and next time I would definitely double the sauce. This is outstanding, and I highly recommend it.

Although I followed previous reviewers suggestions of adding onion and garlic the recipe still lacked in taste. I ended up adding a tablespoon of dijon mustard to the sauce.

Absolutely delicious! I didn't have cream, so I used milk. I didn't have wine, so I used chicken broth. I doubled both of those for more sauce. I also served it over a bed of rice. So good!

thanks for sharing this wonderful recipe - my family loved it!! I felt the spices might be too much for my 8 year old but she ate her whole plate and asked for seconds. I am going to add mushrooms, artichokes, etc the next time!

Very tasty. At others suggestions I doubled the sauce, & added a touch of garlic. Used reg milk as well and added mushrooms, but used the amount of basil & parsley that the original recipe called for. Will make this again & serve over egg noodles!

This recipe is simply superb! We have tried to make little changes like using a heavier cream to make the sauce a little thicker but all in all this recipe is perfect! Wonderful dish.

Very tasty! Loved the spices, but was a bit sweet. So the next time I make it, I'll leave out the carrots and add onion, garlic and mushrooms instead. Thanks for sharing the recipe. My husband loved it!

Made this for dinner with the Garlic Mashed Potatoes Secret Recipe. Had some leftover Pork Tenderloin, so I cut down the cooking time and added celery to the sliced carrots. It turned out to be an excellent dinner - will add this to my repetoire. Thanks for the recipe.

My husband and I aren't huge fans of meals based around pork - but this sounded like a winner - and indeed it was! Will make again! Like other reviewers I added more liquid / seasonings to create more sauce.

I have made the original recipe many many times. Delish! The only thing different I now do is add Tastefully Simple's Spinach and Herb dip mix instead of the basil. Very simple and easy to make. Makes a nice tasty gravy.

This recipe was good - my son loved it but my husband thought it was just ok. Like many others, I doubled the sauce to serve over egg noodles. Did not use the carrots, did not see them as necessary. Will make this again, but with little tweeks to please the hubs! Passing along to my Mom too!
