Instructions
- Step 1: Preheat oven to 400°F. In a small bowl, mix 2 tbsp olive oil with 1 tbsp chopped fresh rosemary, 1 tbsp fresh thyme leaves, 3 minced garlic cloves, 1 tsp lemon zest, 1 tsp salt, and 1/2 tsp black pepper to create an herb paste.
- Step 2: Pat 1.5 lbs pork tenderloin dry, then rub the herb paste evenly all over the pork. Place in the center of a large rimmed baking sheet.
- Step 3: In a large bowl, toss 1 lb halved Brussels sprouts and 1 large sliced apple wedges with 2 tbsp olive oil, 1/2 tsp salt, and 1/2 tsp black pepper. Arrange around the pork on the baking sheet in a single layer.
- Step 4: Roast pork and vegetables in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, turning Brussels sprouts and apples halfway through, until pork reaches an internal temperature of 145°F and vegetables are caramelized and tender.
- Step 5: Remove pork from oven and let rest for 5 minutes before slicing. Serve pork slices with roasted Brussels sprouts and apples.
