Honey Garlic Pork Tenderloin Casserole is a delicious and flavorful dish that combines the sweetness of honey with the savory goodness of garlic and tender pork. Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to prepare it:

Ingredients:

For the Pork Tenderloin:

  • 2 pork tenderloins (about 1.5-2 lbs or 680-900g total)
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 1/4 cup chicken broth
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon dried rosemary (or 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, chopped)
  • Salt and pepper to taste

For the Casserole:

  • 4-6 cups of your choice of vegetables (e.g., potatoes, carrots, green beans, bell peppers), cut into bite-sized pieces
  • Olive oil for drizzling
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)

Instructions:

  1. Marinate the Pork Tenderloin:
    • In a bowl, whisk together the minced garlic, honey, soy sauce, chicken broth, olive oil, dried rosemary, salt, and pepper to create the marinade.
    • Place the pork tenderloins in a resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish.
    • Pour the marinade over the pork, ensuring it’s well coated.
    • Seal the bag or cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to marinate. You can marinate it for several hours or overnight for more flavor if you have the time.
  2. Preheat the Oven:
    • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  3. Prepare the Vegetables:
    • While the pork is marinating, prepare your choice of vegetables.
    • Toss the vegetables in a bit of olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
    • Arrange the vegetables in a casserole dish or a large baking sheet.
  4. Cook the Pork and Vegetables:
    • Remove the marinated pork tenderloins from the refrigerator.
    • Heat a skillet or oven-safe pan over medium-high heat.
    • Sear the pork tenderloins on all sides until they have a nice golden-brown crust.
    • Place the seared pork tenderloins on top of the vegetables in the casserole dish.

  1. Bake:
    • Pour any remaining marinade over the pork and vegetables.
    • Cover the casserole dish with foil or an oven-safe lid.
    • Bake in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes or until the pork reaches an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).
  2. Rest and Garnish:
    • Remove the casserole dish from the oven and let the pork rest for a few minutes before slicing it into medallions.
    • Garnish with fresh parsley, if desired.
  3. Serve:
    • Serve the Honey Garlic Pork Tenderloin Casserole with the roasted vegetables and drizzle any pan juices over the top for extra flavor.
