Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound pork tenderloin
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
- 3 tablespoons honey
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon whole grain mustard
- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with foil or parchment paper for easy cleanup.
Pat the pork tenderloin dry with paper towels. Trim any excess fat or silver skin from the tenderloin.
In a small bowl, mix olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Rub this mixture all over the pork tenderloin.
Heat a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Add the pork tenderloin and sear for 2-3 minutes on each side until a golden crust forms.
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and roast the pork tenderloin for 18-20 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C). Remove the pork from the oven and let it rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing.
While the pork rests, prepare the honey mustard sauce. In a small saucepan, combine honey, Dijon mustard, whole grain mustard, apple cider vinegar, and butter. Heat over medium heat, whisking constantly, until the butter is melted and the sauce is smooth and slightly thickened, about 3-4 minutes.
Slice the rested pork tenderloin into medallions and arrange on a serving plate. Drizzle the honey mustard sauce over the sliced pork or serve it on the side in a small bowl.
Serve warm and enjoy this flavorful dish with your favorite side dishes like roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a fresh salad.
