Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 425°F. In a small bowl, whisk together 3 tbsp pure maple syrup, 1 tbsp Dijon mustard, and 2 minced garlic cloves to create the glaze.
  2. Step 2: Place 1 lb pork tenderloin on a baking sheet lined with foil. Brush the maple glaze evenly over the pork.
  3. Step 3: In a large bowl, toss 3 medium peeled and chunked carrots, 2 medium peeled and chunked parsnips, and 1 small cut red onion wedges with 2 tbsp olive oil, 1 tbsp fresh thyme leaves, 1 tsp salt, and 1/2 tsp black pepper until well coated.
  4. Step 4: Arrange the vegetables around the pork on the baking sheet and drizzle with the remaining 2 tbsp olive oil.
  5. Step 5: Roast in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, brushing the pork with remaining glaze halfway through, until the internal temperature of the pork reaches 145°F and vegetables are tender and caramelized.
  6. Step 6: Remove from oven and let the pork rest for 5 minutes before slicing. Serve with the roasted root vegetables.
