Ingredients
- 1 lb pork tenderloin
- 12 oz, halved Brussels sprouts
- 3 tbsp maple syrup
- 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 3 cloves, minced garlic
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
Instructions
- Step 1: Preheat oven to 400°F. In a small bowl, whisk together 3 tbsp maple syrup, 1 tbsp Dijon mustard, 2 tbsp olive oil, 3 minced garlic cloves, 1 tsp salt, 1/2 tsp black pepper, and 1/2 tsp smoked paprika until smooth and fragrant.
- Step 2: Place 1 lb pork tenderloin in the center of a large rimmed baking sheet and arrange 12 oz halved Brussels sprouts around it. Brush half of the maple glaze all over the pork and drizzle the rest over the Brussels sprouts, tossing them lightly to coat.
- Step 3: Roast in the oven for 25-30 minutes, basting the pork with remaining glaze halfway through, until the internal temperature of the pork reaches 145°F and Brussels sprouts are tender and caramelized at the edges. Let pork rest for 5 minutes before slicing and serving with the roasted sprouts.
