Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound pork tenderloin
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 cloves garlic
- 1 teaspoon fresh rosemary
- 1 teaspoon fresh thyme
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Rinse and pat dry the pork tenderloin with paper towels.
In a small bowl, combine the olive oil, minced garlic, chopped rosemary, chopped thyme, salt, pepper, lemon zest, and lemon juice to create a herb marinade.
Rub the marinade all over the pork tenderloin, ensuring it is evenly coated.
Place the pork tenderloin on a roasting pan or a baking dish.
Roast the pork tenderloin in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C) using a meat thermometer.
Remove the pork from the oven and cover it loosely with aluminum foil to rest for about 5-10 minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, ensuring tenderness.
Slice the pork tenderloin into medallions and serve immediately. Enjoy your Paleo Roasted Pork Tenderloin with your favorite vegetables or salad for a complete meal.
