Pork Tenderloins with Wild Rice

Directions

1. 1

   Make a lengthwise slit down the center of each tenderloin to within 1/2 in. of bottom. Open tenderloins so they lie flat; cover and flatten to 3/4-in. thickness.
2. 2

   Prepare rice according to package directions. In a small bowl, combine the rice, vegetables, apricots, parsley and seasonings.
3. 3

   Remove covering; spread rice mixture over meat. Close tenderloins; tie with kitchen string. Place in an ungreased 15x10x1-in. baking pan. Bake, uncovered, at 425° for 15 minutes.
4. 4

   Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, combine the water, gravy mix, mustard and sage. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. Stir in parsley.
5. 5

   Brush 2 tablespoons gravy over tenderloins. Bake 10-15 minutes longer or until a thermometer reads 160°. Let stand for 15 minutes. Discard string; cut each tenderloin into 9 slices. Serve with remaining gravy.
