Yay!!! I have been searching for this recipe. Tried it about 20 years ago and couldn't remember all the ingredients. This is one of my favorites. So easy, delicious and classy!

My main comment is that this is pretty sweet as written, so I adjust for that.. I use frozen tenderloins (1 side of a 2-pack), and the day before I partially thaw trim and slice them about 1-1/2" thick. I sprinkle Tone's No salt herb and garlic seasoning on both sides and flatten with the toothed side of the meat mallet. Then refrigerate overnight. This is just to make preparation even simpler the day of my dinner. I use half salt free butter and half roasted garlic olive oil to brown the medallions.. I use a 10 oz. jar of Smuckers Simply Fruit Apricot Spreadable Fruit (which seems less sweet to me than regular jam), and double the cider vinegar, mustard, green onions and not quite double the butter. Then I top with Craisins. It is a tad sweet, but not overly so. I like to serve it with homemade fettuccini alfredo and steamed asparagus, and a spinach salad for a wonderful company dinner, and it fits nicely into my husband's salt restricted diet.
