This easy Roasted Pork Tenderloin recipe is quick and easy but so flavorful! It's made with a garlic herb rub that is perfect on any meat or vegetables!
2lbspork tenderloin(weight is approximate -- just use 2 pork tenderloins)
2tablespoonsoil
3tablespoonsbrown sugar
3teaspoonsseasoning salt
1teaspoongarlic powder
1teaspoonItalian seasoning
½teaspoonground mustard
¼teaspoonblack pepper
Instructions
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
Trim pork tenderloins, place in a lightly greased 9x13" baking dish and brush with oil.
Combine sugar, seasoning salt, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, mustard and pepper in a small bowl. Rub all over pork, pressing it into the meat firmly.
Bake for 17-20 minutes, until a meat thermometer reaches an internal temperature of 145 F (medium-rare) to 160 F (well done). I recommend removing at 140-145 and letting it rest -- if you do this there will be the slightest pink tinge in the center but it will still be juicy!
Remove from the oven and let rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing.
Notes
*Most pork tenderloins are around the same size -- roughly 1 lb in size. If yours is a little smaller or a little larger, you may want to adjust the cook time a couple minutes either way accordingly. Ingredients and Substitutions:Pork tenderloin: I have not tested this recipe with any other cut of meat, so be sure that you are using tenderloins and not the loin. A pork loin is a much larger cut of meat and will require a much longer cook time. The rub: the seasonings and herbs in this rub are customizable -- feel free to add your own spin!
