1 tablespoon olive or vegetable oil
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning

  • Move vegetables to center of pan; place 1 pork tenderloin on each side. Sprinkle seasoning mixture evenly over pork. Insert ovenproof meat thermometer so tip is in thickest part of pork.

Tips:

  • To ensure even cooking, use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature of the pork tenderloin. It should reach 145°F (63°C) for medium-rare or 160°F (71°C) for medium.
  • If you don't have a meat thermometer, you can check the doneness of the pork by cutting into it. The meat should be slightly pink in the center for medium-rare or cooked through for medium.
  • To make a flavorful marinade, use a combination of olive oil, herbs, and spices. Some popular choices include garlic, rosemary, thyme, sage, and paprika.
  • You can also add vegetables to the roasting pan to create a delicious and healthy side dish. Some good choices include potatoes, carrots, onions, and Brussels sprouts.
  • Let the pork tenderloin rest for a few minutes before slicing and serving. This will help the juices redistribute and make the meat more tender.

Conclusion:

Italian Roasted Pork Tenderloin is a simple yet flavorful dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal or a special occasion. The tenderloin is marinated in a flavorful mixture of olive oil, herbs, and spices, then roasted in the oven until cooked through. The result is a juicy and delicious pork dish that is sure to please everyone at the table.
