Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 425°F. In a small bowl, whisk together 3 tbsp maple syrup, 2 tbsp soy sauce, 3 minced garlic cloves, and 1 tsp chopped fresh thyme; set aside.
  2. Step 2: Toss 2 peeled and chopped carrots, 2 peeled and chopped parsnips, and 1 medium red onion cut into wedges with 2 tbsp olive oil, 1/2 tsp salt, and 1/4 tsp black pepper. Spread evenly on a large rimmed baking sheet.
  3. Step 3: Place the 1 lb pork tenderloin on the baking sheet among the vegetables. Brush the pork all over with half of the maple-soy glaze.
  4. Step 4: Roast in the oven for 20 minutes, then brush the pork with the remaining glaze and continue roasting for another 10-15 minutes, or until the pork reaches an internal temperature of 145°F and vegetables are tender and caramelized.
  5. Step 5: Remove from oven and let pork rest for 5 minutes before slicing. Serve sliced pork alongside the roasted root vegetables.
