Recipe tips
- This serves 3-4 people if you are feeding a larger crown double the recipe and place the tenderloin and vegetables on a large sheet pan lined with aluminum foil for easy cleanup.
- I like to use a cast iron pan for this dish, it gets nice and hot and provides a great sear.
- Use a Meat Thermometer to ensure that the pork is cooked to the proper temperature of 145 degrees, insert the thermometer into the thickest part of the pork.
- Always make sure the pork rests for 5-10 minutes before slicing.
Recipe Faq's
Pork tenderloin is the smaller of the two and usually comes in a package with two that weigh 1- 1.5 pounds each. It's lean meat and does best when cooked quickly. The loin cut is wider and flatter and usually also boneless with a thick fat cap on one side.
Use a Meat Thermometer to ensure that the pork is cooked to the proper temperature of 145 degrees, insert the thermometer into the thickest part of the pork.
Yes if you would like to swap out the veggies you can try small baby carrots, Brussels sprouts cut in half, or even sweet potatoes, just make sure they are all about 1 inch in size so they cook evenly.
Just sear the pork tenderloin as instructed then transfer the pork to a baking dish or baking sheet.

- In a small bowl add the paprika, Italian seasoning, granulated garlic, salt, and pepper, and mix until combined.
- Pat the pork dry with a paper towel and rub the spice mixture on both sides of the pork tenderloin.
- Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in an 12-inch oven-safe skillet (I used cast iron) on medium-high heat. Place the tenderloin into the skillet and sear for 1-2 minutes on all sides.
- While the tenderloin is searing cut the potatoes quarters (or halves if they are small) and then place them in a bowl add the reserved tablespoon of olive oil and a sprinkle of salt and pepper and toss them until coated.
- When the tenderloin is done searing add the potatoes on both sides of the pork. Bake for 20 minutes.
- While the pork is baking in a small bowl mix the garlic, honey, soy sauce, and mustard until combined.
- Remove the pork from the oven and add in the green beans, then brush or pour the sauce over the meat and bake another 10-15 minutes or until the pork tenderloin reaches 145 degrees. Check the tenderloin after 10 minutes to see where the temperature is at..
- Let pork rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
I would add the sauce later along with the green beans or else they will be mush.
Iwant to make this using your slow cooker method. Should I add the sauce early or when its almost done? And put the beans in early too?
