Instructions
- Step 1: Preheat oven to 425°F. In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tbsp honey, 1 tbsp sriracha sauce, 1 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tsp garlic powder, and 1 tsp smoked paprika to create the glaze.
- Step 2: Place 1 lb trimmed pork tenderloin in the center of a large rimmed baking sheet. Toss 2 medium carrots, 1 large sliced red bell pepper, and 1 small red onion wedges with 3 tbsp olive oil, 1 tsp salt, and 1/2 tsp black pepper, then spread the vegetables evenly around the pork.
- Step 3: Brush half of the glaze evenly over the pork tenderloin. Roast everything for 20 minutes.
- Step 4: Remove the tray from the oven, brush the pork with the remaining glaze, and toss the vegetables gently. Return to the oven and roast for an additional 10-12 minutes, or until the pork reaches an internal temperature of 145°F and the vegetables are caramelized and tender.
- Step 5: Let the pork rest for 5 minutes before slicing. Serve with the roasted vegetables.
