LOCATION

Directions

  • 1 Heat oven to 450°F. Spray shallow roasting pan and rack with cooking spray. Place pork tenderloins on rack in pan.
  • 2 In small bowl, mix remaining ingredients. Spoon herb mixture evenly over pork. Insert ovenproof meat thermometer so tip is in the thickest part of pork. Cover pork loosely with foil.
  • 3 Bake 20 minutes; remove foil. Bake uncovered 10 to 15 minutes longer or until thermometer reads 155°F. Cover pork loosely with foil and let stand 10 to 15 minutes or until thermometer reads 160°F. (Temperature will continue to rise about 5°F, and pork will be easier to carve.)

This was delicious and impressive! It did take longer to bake than indicated, though. When I do it again, I will bake it for 30 minutes, covered, and probably 10-15 minutes, uncovered. Also, I prefer the pork a little less pink inside than the instructions called for. Bake to a doneness YOU prefer. :) (Tip: The fennel seed needs to be broken up with a pestle and mortar to release the flavor.)
