Easy Roasted Pork Tenderloin

easy dinner ideas for fall

A Roasted Pork Tenderloin is the perfect meat dish for a holiday table.

It’s fast and easy compared to other options (like a turkey, for example) and is simple and delicious.

Also, did you know that the tenderloin is the leanest cut of pork?

Here, we dress it up with a simple Dijon and garlic rub everyone in your family will love.

INGREDIENTS

  • 16 ounces pork tenderloin
  • 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
  • 2 garlic cloves, chopped
  • sprinkle sea salt
  • sprinkle freshly ground black pepper

DIRECTIONS

  • Preheat oven to 425 F. Season the pork with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Mix the mustard and garlic together and rub all over the tenderloin.
  • Heat a large nonstick ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat.
  • Add the pork and sear until all sides are brown, turning occasionally, about 5 to 7 minutes.
  • Transfer the pan to the oven and roast until cooked through, about 15 minutes.
  • Let the pork rest for 10 minutes.

WHY WE LOVE THIS RECIPE

A serving of pork contains 50 percent of the daily iron your body needs in an easily-absorbed form. Served at a special dinner alongside roasted root vegetables, mashed sweet potatoes, and other delicious sides, it’s a total winner.
