Easy Marinated Pork Tenderlon

Ingredients

• 2 pounds pork tenderloin (I use two, 1 pound loins) 

• 1/4 cup soy sauce

• 1/4 cup olive oil

• 3 tablespoons Dijon honey mustard 

• 1 clove garlic, minced

• salt and pepper to taste

Directions

Marinade: In a medium size bowl add soy sauce, olive oil, Dijon honey mustard, minced garlic, salt and pepper and whisk until well blended. Place tenderloins in a ziplock bag and pour marinade over. Seal bag, coat loins well then place in fridge for 3 hours or more - the longer the better. If you can, marinate overnight.  

Baking Pork Tenderloin:  

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a 9x13 baking dish with non-stick cooking spray. Place tenderloin(s) in baking dish then pour the marinade from the bag over the tenderloins. Bake on middle rack of oven for 45 to 55 minutes or until the pork reaches a safe minimal internal temperature of 145-160 degrees F with a 3 minute rest time.   

Tip

If you do not have Dijon honey mustard on hand, but have Dijon mustard, you can add 3 tablespoon of Dijon mustard and 1 tablespoon of honey.
