Ingredients

• 2 pieces (1 to 1.5 lbs each) Pork tenderloin
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 1 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 0.25 cup Honey
• 3 tablespoons Soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon Apple cider vinegar
• 4 cloves Garlic, minced
• 1 tablespoon Unsalted butter
• 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

Step 2

Pat the pork tenderloins dry with paper towels. Season them evenly with salt and black pepper on all sides.

Step 3

In a large oven-safe skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Sear the pork tenderloins for 2-3 minutes on each side until they are browned all over. Remove the skillet from heat but keep the pork in the skillet.

Step 4

In a small bowl, whisk together the honey, soy sauce, apple cider vinegar, and minced garlic to make the honey garlic sauce.

Step 5

Pour the sauce over the pork tenderloins. Use a spoon to coat the pork evenly with the sauce.

Step 6

Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven. Roast the pork for 15-20 minutes, basting with the sauce every 5 minutes, until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C).

Step 7

Carefully remove the skillet from the oven and transfer the pork tenderloins to a cutting board. Let them rest for 5 minutes before slicing.

Step 8

While the pork rests, place the skillet back on the stove over medium heat. Stir in the butter and let the sauce simmer for 2-3 minutes until slightly thickened.

Step 9

Slice the pork tenderloins into medallions and arrange them on a serving platter. Drizzle the thickened sauce over the top and garnish with fresh parsley if desired.

Step 10

Serve immediately with your favorite sides and enjoy!
