Garlic and Herb Pork Tenderloins

Hi everyone, Julia Chow here and I have a very tasty recipe for you today.  I made it yesterday with a little help from my mama.

ingredients

• 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
• 1 tbsp  salt and fresh cracked pepper
• 3 lb pork tenderloin
• 4 oz butter thin sliced into 4-6 pats
• 2 tbsp diced garlic
• 1 tsp basil
• 1 tsp oregano
• 1 tsp thyme
• 1 tsp parsley
• 1 tsp sage

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2. Line baking sheet with aluminum foil.
3. In a small bowl, combine garlic, basil, oregano, thyme, parsley, and sage. Set aside.
4. Generously season tenderloin with salt and pepper.
5. In a large pan, heat oil until shimmery.
6. Add tenderloin to pan, and cook on all sides until dark golden brown.
7. Add tenderloin to baking sheet.
8. Generously coat tenderloin with herb mix.
9. Place pats of butter on top of the tenderloin.
10. Wrap in foil, bake until pork is 150 degrees internally at the widest part of the tenderloin (about 25 minutes.)
11. When pork has come to temperature, remove and let rest for at least five minutes to lock in juices.
12. Slice against the grain and serve immediately.
    * I added fresh broccoli florets too.  You can add onions or potatoes, carrots or any kind of vegetables you want.

 Make sure to brown all sides.

 I bought a package of two tenderloins so I wrapped them separately.

 Use fresh parsley if you can.

 You can cook it without added vegetables too.

 The broccoli steamed and was delicious.

 Wrap them tightly so no steam escapes.

 Depending on the size of your tenderloins, they might cook longer than the 25 minutes called for.  Just make sure the internal temperature is 150 degrees.

It is sad that I didn't get any, however, I heard they were very good.
