Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 425°F. In a small bowl, whisk together 3 tbsp Dijon mustard, 2 tbsp olive oil, 1 tbsp honey, 3 minced garlic cloves, 1 tsp salt, 1/2 tsp black pepper, and 1 tsp fresh thyme leaves until smooth and fragrant.
  2. Step 2: Place 1 lb pork tenderloin in the center of a rimmed sheet pan and brush half the mustard glaze evenly over it. Arrange 2 cored and quartered medium apples and 12 oz halved Brussels sprouts around the pork, then drizzle the remaining glaze over the vegetables.
  3. Step 3: Roast everything for 20-25 minutes, turning the apples and Brussels sprouts halfway through, until the pork reaches an internal temperature of 145°F and the vegetables are tender with caramelized edges.
  4. Step 4: Remove the pork from the oven and let rest for 5 minutes before slicing. Serve the sliced pork with the roasted apples and Brussels sprouts on the side, spooning any pan juices over the top.
