Maple Mustard Pork Tenderloin

Step 1

Preheat oven to 400°F.  Remove silver skin of pork tenderloin (see the "chef tips" section below for information about this). Pat pork tenderloin very dry with paper towels.

Step 2

Combine maple mustard sauce ingredients (soy sauce, garlic, maple syrup, mustard, salt and pepper) in a small bowl and set aside.

Step 3

Combine dried oregano, rosemary, garlic powder, paprika, thyme, salt, and pepper in a small bowl, then rub into the pork, on all sides.

Step 4

Heat vegetable oil in a cast iron skillet, or other oven-safe skillet, over MED HIGH heat.

Step 5

Once oil is hot, add pork and sear for about 2 minutes per side.  Set pork aside on a plate.

Step 6

Add beef broth and scrape the bottom of the skillet with a wooden spoon, releasing any browned bits, cooking until the broth reduces by half.

Step 7

Add pork back to the skillet, brush pork with about half of the maple mustard sauce, then bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until a meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the tenderloin registers between 137 - 140°F.

Step 8

Brush pork with remaining sauce and broil on HIGH for 1-2 minutes, or until golden brown and sauce is caramelized and sticky.

Step 9

Let pork rest for 5-10 minutes, then slice into 1/2” thick slices and sprinkle with minced parsley (if desired), and drizzle with pan juices.
