Instructions
- Step 1: Preheat oven to 425°F. In a small bowl, whisk together 1/3 cup fresh orange juice, 2 tbsp honey, 1/2 tsp chili flakes, and 3 minced garlic cloves to make the glaze.
- Step 2: Season 1 lb pork tenderloin with salt and black pepper. Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat and sear the pork for 2-3 minutes per side until browned.
- Step 3: Remove skillet from heat. Brush the pork generously with half of the orange-chili glaze.
- Step 4: In a separate bowl, toss 2 large peeled carrots, 2 medium peeled parsnips, and 1 medium red onion wedges with 2 tbsp olive oil, 1 tbsp chopped fresh thyme, salt, and pepper.
- Step 5: Arrange the vegetables around the pork in the skillet. Roast in the oven for 20-25 minutes, brushing the pork once more with remaining glaze halfway through, until the pork reaches an internal temperature of 145°F and vegetables are tender.
- Step 6: Let pork rest 5 minutes before slicing. Serve sliced pork with roasted vegetables.
