Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 400°F. In a small bowl, mix 3 tbsp olive oil, 4 minced garlic cloves, 1 tbsp chopped fresh rosemary, 1 tbsp chopped fresh thyme, 1 tsp salt, and 3/4 tsp black pepper.
  2. Step 2: Rub the herb-garlic mixture evenly over a 1.5 lb pork tenderloin. Place the pork in the center of a large sheet pan.
  3. Step 3: Arrange 2 cups baby carrots, 2 cups halved baby red potatoes, and 1 medium yellow onion cut into wedges around the pork on the sheet pan. Drizzle vegetables with a little olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
  4. Step 4: Roast in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes until the pork reaches an internal temperature of 145°F and the vegetables are tender and caramelized.
  5. Step 5: Remove pork from the oven and let rest for 5 minutes before slicing. Serve pork slices with the roasted vegetables.
