Honey Mustard Roasted Pastured Pork Tenderloin

Ingredients

  • 1 Queen City Farm pastured pork tenderloin (about 1-1.25 lb)
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon fresh thyme

Directions

  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 400F. Pat the tenderloin dry and season with salt and pepper.

  2. 2

    Sear in an oven-safe skillet with olive oil over medium-high, turning, until browned all over, about 5 minutes.

  3. 3

    Whisk the mustard, honey, garlic, and thyme; brush over the pork.

  4. 4

    Roast for 12-15 minutes, until the internal temperature reaches 145F.

  5. 5

    Rest 5 minutes, then slice into medallions and spoon the pan glaze over top.

Notes

Farm tip: Pull tenderloin at 145F and let it rest — it stays pink and juicy. It overcooks fast, so watch the thermometer.

Serving suggestion: Serve with roasted potatoes and a green salad, or over creamy polenta.
