Pork Tenderloin
Happy Monday, I hope you had a lovely weekend. Did you get your entry in for the new giveaway? Today’s recipe just needs you to add some potatoes and your favorite green veggie and this Pork Tenderloin isa wonderful Sunday meal.
What You Need
3-4 Lb boneless pork loin (do not remove fat)
3 Tbsp. olive oil
1 tsp. Pepper
1 Tbsp. Salt
2 tsp. Garlic powder (not garlic salt)
1 tsp. Dried thyme
1 tsp. Dried rosemary
1 tsp. Dried basil
Roasting pan with rack
Bowl
Whisk
Meat thermometer
Before You Start: Preheat oven to 475 °
Let Make It! Combine all ingredients in bowl and whisk together. Place the pork loin on the rack in the roasting pan. Pour mixture over the top of the tenderloin a little bit at a time and rub it in using your fingers or the back of a spoon (fingers work best). Be sure to coat it well with the herb mixture. Cook the tenderloin for about 35 minute then reduce the heat to 425 ° and cook for an additional hour. Check the temperature (it should be between 155° and 160°). Remove the roast from the oven and let it stand for 15-20 minutes before serving.This is important to retain the juices and keep it nice and tender.

For the 1 Tbsp. Salt, would you recommend kosher salt or table or sea salt? I’d love to make this tomorrow.
Thank you!!

Hello Dylan, the main differences between kosher salt and table salt is the shape and size of its crystals. The sodium chloride in all salts is basically the same. Although Kosher salt is free of any added iodine. Use the finer table salt or ground sea salt and save the Kosher salt for some yummy homemade pretzels, you can find them in my recipe section. Please let me know how your tenderloin turns out. I hope you enjoy this recipe as much as I enjoyed creation it. Hugs

We eat pork tenderloin a couple of times a year. My favorite version is on the grill, so we usually make it in summertime.

We had 1en of these delicious tenderloins cooked up for a recent family wedding. The groom did all the preparation, using a recipie almost identical to the one you used Katie. It was marvelous with baby potatoes and peas, covered with a thick gravy. MMMMM now I am hungry!
