21 Day Fix Pork Tenderloin

I feel like we eat so much chicken and turkey lately, so I was excited to switch things up with a pork tenderloin. I rarely eat pork just because when I think pork, I think bacon, hot dogs and dry pork chops. When we were on our evening walk last weekend, this pork tenderloin was on sale and I was able to get two organic pork tenderloins for less than $9, so I figured we would try it out! This recipe was a winner for us! The marinade was so flavorful and turned into a sticky sauce as it cooked.  This recipe is a keeper for us!

INGREDIENTS

  • 1 pork tenderloin
  • 1 tbsp crushed garlic
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1/4 cup liquid aminos
  • 4 tbsp honey
  • 2 tbsp dijon mustard
  • 2 tbsp orange juice
  • 1 tbsp fresh rosemary, chopped
  • Pinch of salt and pepper

DIRECTIONS

  1. Combine all ingredients into a freezer bag with the pork tenderloin and marinate for 2-3 hours, longer the better. (I marinated overnight!)
  2. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
  3. Place tenderloin and sauce into a 9x13 lightly sprayed with non-stick cooking spray.
  4. Bake for 40-45 minutes. Baste the tenderloin with the sauce every 8-10 minutes. Sauce should get fairly sticky.
  5. Remove the tenderloin and place on a cutting board. Let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
  6. Thinly slice the tenderloin and...enjoy!

If you are following the 21 Day Fix, one serving would be counted as 1 red and 1 tsp, with a serving size being 1 red.
