OVEN-ROASTED PORK TENDERLOIN WITH ROASTED POTATOES AND VEGETABLES
I loved the combination of herbs and spices that acted as both a wet rub for the pork and seasoning for the potatoes and vegetables--sweetness from the balsamic vinegar and parsnips, earthiness from the rosemary and carrots, and a little tang from the garlic.

- Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
- Combine rosemary, garlic, balsamic vinegar, chicken broth, shallot, olive oil, pepper, and salt in a food processor. Blend until slightly chunky.
- Rub all sides of tenderloin with 1/2 to 3/4 of the mixture. Place tenderloin into the bottom of a roasting pan.
- Roast, uncovered, in the preheated oven, for 15 minutes.
- Meanwhile, combine remainder of the rosemary mixture with parsnips, carrots, potatoes, and celery in a large bowl.
- Add vegetable mixture to the roasting pan with tenderloin. Reduce oven temperature to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Transfer back to the oven and continue to cook until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of the tenderloin reads 145 degrees F (63 degrees C), about 1 hour.
- Remove tenderloin from the roasting pan and let rest for 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, return vegetables to the oven and continue to cook until easily pierced with a fork, about 10 minutes more.

ASIAN OVEN-ROASTED "RED" PORK TENDERLOIN
This is the about the third Asian-inspired pork dish that I've posted... One thing about the Asians, they do love their pork (and so do I). This one is easy peasy... all you have to do is have patience. This particular pork has more subtle flavors, and is excellent served as an appetizer, as a main dish served with noodles,...

Steps:
- 1. Gather your ingredients.
- 2. Trim any excess fat from the pork loin.
- 3. Place the pork tenderloin in a large Ziploc bag.
- 4. Chef's Tip: You could always use non-reactive bowl.
- 5. Stir all of the marinade ingredients together in a small bowl, making sure that the sugars have completely dissolved.
- 6. Chef's Tip: If you want that distinctive red color to the pork, add a drop or two of red food coloring. The inclusion of omission of this item in no way impacts the taste of the pork. Only its appearance... We eat first with our eyes.
- 7. Pour the marinade over the pork, and make sure it is completely coated.
- 8. Squeeze all the air out of the Ziploc bag, or cover the bowl.
- 9. Place in the refrigerator for 6 to 24 hours.
- 10. Chef's Note: Allow the marinade and the pork to get to know each other for 6 to 24 hours. I've found if I allow the pork to marinate over 24 hours, it begins to overpower the pork.
- 11. Chef's Tip: Every once in awhile while you're exploring what's in the fridge, give the pork a turn in the bowl, or give the Ziploc bag a squeeze.
- 12. Remove the pork from the refrigerator, and discard the excess marinade.
- 13. Optional: If you want the tenderloin to be more round than oval. Then use some twine to truss up the pork. Use a surgeon's knot to pull it nice and tight.
- 14. Place the pork loin on a baking sheet, fitted with a wire rack.
- 15. Allow it to rest, for 30 minutes.
- 16. While the pork is resting, place a rack in the middle position, and preheat the oven to 375f (190c).
- 17. If you have an external temperature probe, insert that into the middle of the tenderloin.
- 18. Place in the oven, and keep an eye on the internal temperature of the pork.
- 19. SELFIE: Waiting for the pork to come out of the oven.
- 20. Remove from the oven when the internal temperature of the pork reaches 160f (71c), about 1 hour.
- 21. Allow the pork to rest for 20 minutes before slicing.
- 22. Chef's Note: While the roast is resting, the internal temperature of the roast will rise to 165f (74c). This is called carry-over cooking.
- 23. Chef's Note: Most people overcook items in the oven, because they don't take into account "carry-over" cooking. Pork loin is a very lean cut of meat. Once it hits 165f (74c), it will begin drying out quickly. By taking it out of the oven at 160f (71c), the carry over cooking will take it up to safe temperatures, and you'll have a perfectly juicy tenderloin.
- 24. If you're serving this as a main dish, cut it into 1/4 inch (35cm) slices, then toss some Chinese noodles with 1teaspoon each of tamari,and sesame oil. Add the pork and the noodles to a plate and sprinkle with some toasted sesame seeds.
- 25. Serving Suggestion: Or, you could slice the pork and place into a nice steaming bowl of noodles and Asian broth (my personal favorite).
- 26. Keep the faith, and keep cooking.
FIESTA PORK TENDERLOIN WITH OVEN ROASTED VEGETABLES
Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Line roasting pan with foil. Place tenderloin, potatoes, bell peppers, onion, oil and seasoning mix in large heavy-duty plastic bag. Shake to coat. Place tenderloin in center of prepared pan. Arrange vegetables around the tenderloin. Bake, stirring vegetables half way through for 40-45 minutes, or until pork and potatoes are ready. Let stand for 5 minutes.
Tips:
- To ensure an evenly cooked and tender pork tenderloin, use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature. Insert the thermometer into the thickest part of the tenderloin and cook until it reaches an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C) for medium-rare or 160°F (71°C) for medium.
- For extra flavor, marinate the pork tenderloin overnight in a mixture of olive oil, herbs, and spices. This will help the tenderloin absorb the flavors and result in a more flavorful dish.
- Roast the pork tenderloin on a rack in a roasting pan. This will allow the air to circulate around the tenderloin and help it cook evenly. You can also add vegetables to the roasting pan for a delicious side dish.
- Let the pork tenderloin rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing. This will help the juices redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a more tender and flavorful dish.
Conclusion:
Oven-roasted pork tenderloin is an easy and delicious meal that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With its tender texture and flavorful taste, it's sure to be a hit at your next dinner party. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give oven-roasted pork tenderloin a try. You won't be disappointed!
