# Ingredients You'll Need:
→ Honey Garlic Sauce
01 -
120 millilitres honey
02 -
60 millilitres tamari soy sauce or coconut aminos
03 -
2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
04 -
6 garlic cloves, minced
→ Pork Tenderloin
05 -
2 pork tenderloins, around 450 grams each
06 -
1 teaspoon onion powder
07 -
1 teaspoon sweet paprika
08 -
1 teaspoon garlic powder
09 -
0.5 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
10 -
1 teaspoon dried thyme
11 -
1 teaspoon kosher salt
12 -
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
# How to Make It:
01 -
Grab a medium bowl and combine honey, tamari (or coconut aminos), vinegar, and minced garlic together. Whisk until everything's well mixed.
02 -
In a large oven-safe skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Sear the pork tenderloins for about 4 minutes, turning them to brown all sides.
03 -
Start by preheating your oven to 190°C. In a small bowl, mix garlic powder, sweet paprika, onion powder, dried thyme, kosher salt, and black pepper together.
04 -
Take the pork out of the skillet and set it on a plate, covering it loosely with foil for about 5 to 10 minutes. Put the skillet back on the stove and let the remaining sauce simmer for 1 to 2 minutes until it thickens up a bit. If you want it thicker, you can whisk in some cornstarch or arrowroot powder.
05 -
Cut the pork tenderloin into pieces about 1.25 cm thick. Place them on a serving platter and drizzle the honey garlic sauce over them right before you serve.
06 -
Sprinkle the spice mix evenly over the pork tenderloins. Make sure to rub it in well to cover every surface.
07 -
Once the stovetop is off, pour the honey garlic sauce over the tenderloins in the skillet. Use tongs to coat the pork, then move the skillet to the oven and roast for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 60°C using an instant-read thermometer.
# Extra Information:
01 -
Letting the pork rest after it's done cooking helps the juices spread out, making the slices juicy and tender.
02 -
Keep an eye on the temperature with an instant-read thermometer to ensure perfect doneness.
