Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 400°F. In a small bowl, combine 3 tbsp olive oil, 4 minced garlic cloves, 1 tsp dried oregano, 1 tsp dried basil, 1/2 tsp dried thyme, 1.5 tsp salt, and 1 tsp black pepper to create an herb marinade.
  2. Step 2: Rub the 1.5 lb pork tenderloin evenly with the herb marinade. Let it sit at room temperature for 10 minutes.
  3. Step 3: Toss 2 medium chopped zucchini, 1 large cut red onion, and 1.5 cups cherry tomatoes with 1 tbsp olive oil and 2 tbsp balsamic vinegar in a large bowl.
  4. Step 4: Place the pork tenderloin in the center of a large roasting pan. Arrange the seasoned vegetables evenly around the pork.
  5. Step 5: Roast in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, turning vegetables halfway through, until the pork reaches an internal temperature of 145°F and vegetables are tender.
  6. Step 6: Remove pork from the oven and let rest for 5 minutes before slicing. Serve with the roasted vegetables.
