Ingredients

• 1 lb Pork tenderloin
• 0.25 cup Honey
• 2 tbsp Soy sauce
• 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
• 2 Garlic cloves, minced
• 1 tbsp Olive oil
• 1 tbsp Apple cider vinegar
• 1 tsp Salt
• 0.5 tsp Black pepper
• 1 tbsp Chopped fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

In a small bowl, whisk together honey, soy sauce, Dijon mustard, minced garlic, olive oil, apple cider vinegar, salt, and black pepper until well combined.

Step 3

Trim any excess fat from the pork tenderloin and pat it dry with paper towels.

Step 4

Heat a large oven-proof skillet over medium-high heat and sear the pork on all sides in a drizzle of olive oil until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes per side.

Step 5

Once seared, reduce the heat to medium and pour the honey glaze over the pork, ensuring it is evenly coated.

Step 6

Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 18-22 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the pork reaches 145°F (63°C).

Step 7

Remove the skillet from the oven and let the pork rest for 5 minutes before slicing.

Step 8

Spoon the remaining glaze from the skillet over the sliced pork as a sauce.

Step 9

Garnish with fresh parsley if desired and serve immediately.
