Oven Roasted Pork Tenderloin
Ingredients:
– 2 lbs pork tenderloin
– 2 garlic cloves, minced
– 1 tablespoon olive oil
– 2 teaspoons dried rosemary
– 1 teaspoon dried thyme
– 1 teaspoon salt
– 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
– 1/4 cup chicken broth
Instructions:
1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and prepare a baking dish by lining it with aluminum foil for easy cleanup.
2. In a small bowl, mix together the minced garlic, olive oil, rosemary, thyme, salt, and black pepper to create a fragrant marinade.
3. Place the pork tenderloin in the prepared baking dish and rub the marinade all over the meat, ensuring it is evenly coated.
4. Pour the chicken broth into the bottom of the baking dish to keep the pork tenderloin moist during cooking.
5. Cover the dish with foil and roast the pork in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes.
6. After the initial cooking time, remove the foil and continue to roast for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the pork reaches 145°F (63°C) for medium-rare or 160°F (71°C) for medium doneness.
7. Once done, remove the pork tenderloin from the oven and tent it loosely with foil. Allow it to rest for 10 minutes before slicing to let the juices redistribute and keep the meat tender.
8. Slice the roasted pork tenderloin into medallions and serve with your favorite side dishes. Enjoy!
