Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces (about 1 pound each) pork tenderloin
- 0.25 cups maple syrup
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 3 cloves garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, chopped
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil for easy cleanup.
Trim any excess fat or silver skin from the pork tenderloins and pat them dry with paper towels.
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the maple syrup, Dijon mustard, soy sauce, olive oil, minced garlic, fresh rosemary, paprika, kosher salt, and black pepper to create the marinade.
Place the pork tenderloins in a shallow dish or a resealable plastic bag and pour the marinade over them, ensuring they are fully coated. Let the pork marinate for at least 10 minutes at room temperature or up to 4 hours in the refrigerator for deeper flavor.
Remove the pork from the marinade and place it on the prepared baking sheet. Reserve any leftover marinade for glazing.
Roast the pork tenderloins in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C) when measured with a meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the meat.
While the pork is roasting, transfer the reserved marinade to a small saucepan and bring it to a boil over medium heat. Simmer for 2-3 minutes or until slightly thickened.
Once the pork is cooked, remove it from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing. This helps retain the juices.
Slice the pork tenderloin into medallions and drizzle with the reduced marinade before serving.
Serve warm with your favorite side dishes, such as roasted veggies, mashed potatoes, or a crisp green salad.
