Garlic Rosemary Pork Tenderloin

Garlic Rosemary Pork Tenderloin

Pork tenderloin is one of my all time favorite meats to cook for a couple of reasons. 1) There is so many different options to make this taste delicious, one being this garlic rosemary pork tenderloin. 2) Pork tenderloin is actually pretty damn healthy for you at 120 calories for 4 oz serving.

Prep:

Pre heat your oven to 400 F.

This is really simple.. Even I can explain to you how to do this little preparation.  The first step is to get together about 3 cloves of garlic and a couple strips of rosemary.  Mince the garlic into very small chunks and chop the rosemary into 1/2 centimeter long pieces.  Put this 2 ingredients into a mixing bowl and then add in the salt and 1 table spoon of olive oil.  Mix all of these spices together and then rub it all over that beautiful hunk of meat!

 

Cooking:

Heat a skillet or saute pan and heat 1 tablespoon of olive.  Once the olive oil is hot and flows freely around the pan, place the pork tenderloin into the pan and seer until dark brown. Once the first side is brown, repeat this step for the remaining sides.

If you are using a pan that can withstand temps of 400F, place the entire pan in the oven.  If you don’t have an oven safe pan, move the garlic rosemary pork tenderloin from the pan to an oven safe dish.

Cook this until the it’s completely cooked which should be about 20 mins
