Ingredients

• 2 pieces (about 1 pound each) pork tenderloin
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 4 minced garlic cloves
• 3 tablespoons soy sauce
• 3 tablespoons honey
• 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 sprigs (optional, for garnish) fresh rosemary

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

Step 2

Trim any silver skin or excess fat from the pork tenderloins and pat them dry with paper towels.

Step 3

In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, garlic, soy sauce, honey, Dijon mustard, paprika, salt, and black pepper to create the marinade.

Step 4

Place the pork tenderloins in a large resealable plastic bag or shallow dish, then pour the marinade over the meat, making sure it’s evenly coated.

Step 5

Seal the bag or cover the dish and marinate the tenderloins in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, or up to 8 hours for optimal flavor.

Step 6

Heat a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Remove the tenderloins from the marinade (reserve the marinade) and sear them in the skillet for 2-3 minutes on each side, until nicely browned.

Step 7

Once seared, pour the reserved marinade over the pork tenderloins and transfer the skillet to the preheated oven.

Step 8

Roast the pork tenderloins in the oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C). Use a meat thermometer for accuracy.

Step 9

Remove the skillet from the oven and let the pork rest for 5 minutes before slicing.

Step 10

Slice the pork tenderloins and drizzle the pan juices over the top. Garnish with fresh rosemary, if desired, and serve immediately.
