Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces (1 to 1.5 lbs each) Pork tenderloin
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 0.25 cup Honey
- 3 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon Apple cider vinegar
- 4 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon Unsalted butter
- 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Pat the pork tenderloins dry with paper towels. Season them evenly with salt and black pepper on all sides.
In a large oven-safe skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Sear the pork tenderloins for 2-3 minutes on each side until they are browned all over. Remove the skillet from heat but keep the pork in the skillet.
In a small bowl, whisk together the honey, soy sauce, apple cider vinegar, and minced garlic to make the honey garlic sauce.
Pour the sauce over the pork tenderloins. Use a spoon to coat the pork evenly with the sauce.
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven. Roast the pork for 15-20 minutes, basting with the sauce every 5 minutes, until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C).
Carefully remove the skillet from the oven and transfer the pork tenderloins to a cutting board. Let them rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
While the pork rests, place the skillet back on the stove over medium heat. Stir in the butter and let the sauce simmer for 2-3 minutes until slightly thickened.
Slice the pork tenderloins into medallions and arrange them on a serving platter. Drizzle the thickened sauce over the top and garnish with fresh parsley if desired.
Serve immediately with your favorite sides and enjoy!
