Tips:

  • To ensure the pork tenderloin is cooked evenly, use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature. It should read 145°F (63°C) for medium-rare, 155°F (68°C) for medium, or 165°F (74°C) for well-done.
  • If you don't have a meat thermometer, you can check the doneness of the pork tenderloin by cutting into the center. The meat should be slightly pink in the center for medium-rare, or cooked through with no pink for well-done.
  • For a more flavorful dish, marinate the pork tenderloin in a mixture of olive oil, garlic, herbs, and spices for at least 30 minutes before cooking.
  • If you don't have shallots, you can use a small onion instead.
  • Serve the pork tenderloin with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or rice.
