Ready to get started making Herb Crusted Pork Tenderloin? If so, gather your ingredients, preheat the oven to 425 degrees F and line a rimmed baking sheet with foil or parchment paper.
In a small bowl, mix the garlic, olive oil, rosemary, thyme, sage, salt, and pepper.
Cover both tenderloins with the mustard using a pastry brush, then rub the pork with the herb mixture.
Place the tenderloins on a rack on the baking sheet.
Roast the pork for approximately 25-30 minutes, or until the crust is golden and a meat thermometer inserted in the thickest part of the pork registers 140-145 degrees F. Let the meat rest for at least 5 minutes, slice and serve. (It’s ok if the meat is pink, as long as it reached the 140-145 degrees mark.)
