An easy, oven-finished pork tenderloin with a sweet and tangy maple Dijon glaze. This recipe is perfect for weeknight dinners or holiday gatherings.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pork tenderloin (about 1.5 lbs)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup
  • 3 tablespoons Dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Pat the pork tenderloin dry with paper towels. Season with salt and pepper.
  3. Heat olive oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the pork tenderloin on all sides until browned, about 2-3 minutes per side.
  4. While the pork sears, whisk together maple syrup, Dijon mustard, soy sauce, and garlic powder in a small bowl.
  5. Pour the maple mustard glaze over the pork tenderloin in the skillet.
  6. Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven. Roast for 15-20 minutes, or until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the pork registers 145°F (63°C).
  7. Remove the pork from the oven and let it rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing.
  8. Spoon any extra glaze from the skillet over the sliced pork before serving.

Notes

  • For a make-ahead option, prepare the glaze and marinate the pork for up to 4 hours in the refrigerator.
  • This recipe pairs well with roasted vegetables or a simple salad.
  • Ensure your skillet is oven-safe before using it in the oven.
