Ingredients
- 1 lb pork tenderloin
- 2 large russet potatoes
- 3 tbsp olive oil
- 0.5 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp smoked paprika
- 1.5 tsp dried Italian seasoning
- 1.5 tsp salt
- 0.5 tsp black pepper
- 2 tbsp fresh parsley
- 0.5 lemon
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with olive oil.
Step 2
Pat the pork tenderloin dry with paper towels. Rub 1 tablespoon of olive oil evenly over the pork, then season it with 1 teaspoon of salt, 0.5 teaspoon of black pepper, 1 teaspoon of garlic powder, 1 teaspoon of smoked paprika, and 1 teaspoon of Italian seasoning.
Step 3
Wash the russet potatoes thoroughly and cut them into thin wedges or fries. Place the fries in a large mixing bowl and toss with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, 0.5 cup of grated Parmesan cheese, 0.5 teaspoon of salt, and 0.5 teaspoon of Italian seasoning until evenly coated.
Step 4
Arrange the seasoned pork tenderloin in the center of the prepared baking sheet. Spread the Parmesan-coated fries around the pork in a single layer, ensuring enough space for even cooking.
Step 5
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast for 25-30 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the pork reaches 145°F (63°C) when checked with a meat thermometer.
Step 6
Once the pork is cooked, remove it from the baking sheet and let it rest for 5-10 minutes, loosely covered with foil, while the fries continue to cook.
Step 7
Increase the oven temperature to 450°F (230°C) and cook the fries for an additional 10 minutes, or until they are golden and crispy.
Step 8
Slice the rested pork tenderloin into medallions. Serve it alongside the Parmesan fries, garnished with freshly chopped parsley and lemon wedges for squeezing over the top.
