Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Pork tenderloin
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 2 cloves Garlic
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.25 cup Chicken broth
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Trim any excess fat or silver skin from the pork tenderloin and pat it dry with paper towels.
In a small bowl, mix together the Dijon mustard, honey, olive oil, minced garlic, salt, black pepper, and paprika to create the honey mustard sauce.
Rub half of the honey mustard mixture over the entire surface of the pork tenderloin.
Heat a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add a small amount of olive oil and sear the pork tenderloin on all sides until golden brown. This process should take about 2-3 minutes per side.
Remove the skillet from the heat and pour the remaining honey mustard sauce over the pork tenderloin.
Add the chicken broth to the skillet to keep the pork moist during baking.
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and roast the pork tenderloin for 15-20 minutes, or until an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C) is reached using a meat thermometer.
Remove the skillet from the oven and let the pork rest for 5 minutes before slicing. This allows the juices to redistribute and keeps the pork tender and moist.
Slice the pork tenderloin into medallions and garnish with freshly chopped parsley if desired. Serve immediately.
