Total Time: 35 minutes
Ingredients:
- 1 pound pork tenderloin
- 1/4 cup finely chopped mixed fresh herbs such as rosemary, thyme, sage and parsley
- Freshly ground black pepper
Preparation:
Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
Trim pork tenderloin of excess fat. Spray pork briefly with nonstick cooking spray. Rub with fresh herb mixture.
Place pork in a small, shallow roasting pan, tucking thin end of tenderloin under to ensure even roasting.
Roast for 20-25 minutes, until an internal thermometer reads 155 degrees Fahrenheit, and the juices run clear. Allow to stand for 10 minutes, allowing the temperature to reach 160 degrees. Slice thinly.
