INGREDIENTS
1 lb Pork Tenderloin
RUB:
1 tbsp garlic salt
1 tbsp garlic pepper
1 tbsp onion powder
1 tsp chilli powder
1 tbsp fresh thyme minced
1 tbsp fresh rosemary minced
2 tbsp butter

HOW TO MAKE HONEY GARLIC ROASTED PORK TENDERLOIN
Step 1: Prepare the oven. Preheat it to 400 degrees F.
Step 2: Drain excess fat from the pork and pierce with a fork in some places.
Step 3: In a small bowl, add the rub ingredients. Stir well.
Step 4: Spread, pressing firmly the rub on every side of the pork.
Step 5: Melt the butter in a heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the pork for about 2 minutes on both sides until brown, flipping once.
Step 6: Transfer the skillet inside the preheated oven and roast the pork for about 20 minutes.
Step 7: In the meantime, whisk the honey garlic sauce ingredients except for the cornstarch and water in a small saucepan. Bring to a light boil.
Step 8: To make a slurry, mix the cornstarch and water. Add this to the sauce and whisk until a bit thickened.
Step 9: Baste the pork with honey garlic sauce and broil for 3 minutes at “HI” broil to caramelize the sauce. When done, remove from the oven and rest the pork for at least 5 minutes, covered before slicing.
Step 10: Before serving, garnish with fresh chopped thyme and rosemary. Enjoy!
