Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 400°F. In a small bowl, whisk together 3 tbsp maple syrup, 2 tbsp Dijon mustard, and 3 minced garlic cloves until smooth.
  2. Step 2: Pat dry 1.5 pounds pork tenderloin and season evenly with 1 tsp salt and 1/2 tsp black pepper. Brush the maple-mustard glaze all over the pork.
  3. Step 3: In a large bowl, toss 3 peeled and chunked carrots, 2 peeled and chunked parsnips, and 4 quartered small red potatoes with 4 tbsp olive oil, 1 tsp salt, 1/2 tsp black pepper, and 4 fresh thyme sprigs.
  4. Step 4: Spread the vegetables in a single layer on a rimmed sheet pan and place the glazed pork tenderloin in the center.
  5. Step 5: Roast in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, basting the pork with remaining glaze halfway through, until the pork reaches an internal temperature of 145°F and vegetables are tender and caramelized.
  6. Step 6: Remove from oven, tent the pork with foil, and let rest for 5 minutes before slicing and serving alongside the roasted root vegetables.
