Honey & Garlic Pork Tenderloins

Honey & Garlic Pork Tenderloins

It’s not very often that I come across a recipe that I don’t have to make ANY changes to in order to make it Gluten-Free and allergy-friendly for my family, but this recipe needed ZERO changes!!! Plus, it was quick and easy to make AND everyone loved it 🙂 This yummy recipe is for two (2) Pork Tenderloins, making it perfect for a large group and/or leftovers.
I owe a HUGE “Thank You” to Ashley Fehr @thereciperebel.com for sharing this wonderful recipe 🙂

The Tenderloins:

  • 2 Pork Tenderloins (approximately 2-2 1/2lbs total) (rinsed & trimmed of most fat (leave a little for flavor))
  • 1-2 Tbsp Olive Oil (or Canola Oil (I used Light Olive Oil))
  • 1 tsp Seasoning Salt (I used “Castle” brand Seasoning Salt, but any brand will do)

The Honey-Garlic Sauce:

  • 2/3 Cup Honey
  • 1/4 Cup Chicken Broth (Regular or low sodium – I used “Orrington Farms” Chicken Broth Base & Seasoning because I know it’s Gluten-Free (purchased from Walmart))
  • 2 Tbsp Soy Sauce (Regular or low sodium – I used Tamara for GF)
  • 2 Tbsp Minced Garlic (I used the already minced from a jar for ease and speed)
  • 1 Tbsp Apple Cider Vinegar
  • 1/4 tsp Salt (omit if you’re on a low sodium diet)
  • 1 1/2 Tbsp Corn Starch
  • 1-2 pinches Red Pepper Flakes
  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
  2. Lightly spray a 9″ x 13″ baking dish with cooking spray; set aside.
  3. Rinse both Tenderloins with cold water and pat dry with paper towels; trim majority of fat and place both tenderloins into the prepared baking dish; set aside.
  4. In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together all of the Honey-Garlic sauce ingredients until all of the corn starch is dissolved – I used boiling water to make the Chicken Broth and this helps dissolve the corn starch.
  5. Carefully pour the sauce around the pork tenderloins – try not to pour the sauce on top of the tenderloins, as it will prevent them from browning.
  6. Bake in the preheated oven, uncovered, for 20-25 minutes (until pork temperature reaches 140 degrees F).
  7. Remove and lightly cover with foil to rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
  8. Drizzle sauce over the pork slices before serving.
  9. Serve with your favorite sides and ENJOY 🙂
