Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 lb Pork tenderloin
- 0.25 cup Honey
- 2 tbsp Soy sauce
- 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
- 2 Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tbsp Olive oil
- 1 tbsp Apple cider vinegar
- 1 tsp Salt
- 0.5 tsp Black pepper
- 1 tbsp Chopped fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a small bowl, whisk together honey, soy sauce, Dijon mustard, minced garlic, olive oil, apple cider vinegar, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
Trim any excess fat from the pork tenderloin and pat it dry with paper towels.
Heat a large oven-proof skillet over medium-high heat and sear the pork on all sides in a drizzle of olive oil until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes per side.
Once seared, reduce the heat to medium and pour the honey glaze over the pork, ensuring it is evenly coated.
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 18-22 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the pork reaches 145°F (63°C).
Remove the skillet from the oven and let the pork rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
Spoon the remaining glaze from the skillet over the sliced pork as a sauce.
Garnish with fresh parsley if desired and serve immediately.
