Ingredients

  • 1 pork tenderloin (1 to 1 1/4 lb)
  • 2 teaspoons chopped fresh rosemary leaves
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried sage leaves, crushed
  • 1/4 teaspoon coarse ground black pepper
  • 1 large dark-orange sweet potato (about 1 lb), peeled, cut into 1 1/2-inch pieces
  • 2 firm ripe small pears, unpeeled, each cut into 6 wedges
  • 1 medium sweet onion, halved crosswise, cut into thin wedges
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Fresh sage leaves, if desired

Directions

  •  
    1
    Heat oven to 450° F. Spray 15 x 10 x 1-inch pan with cooking spray. Place pork tenderloin in pan. In small bowl, mix rosemary, salt, sage and pepper. Rub half of seasoning mixture on pork.

    Bake 25 to 30 minutes, stirring vegetables and pears gently once or twice during baking, until pork has slight blush of pink in center and meat thermometer inserted in center reads 145° F, and vegetables are tender. Remove from oven; cover with foil and let stand 3 minutes before slicing. Cut pork into 1/2-inch slices. Serve with vegetables. Garnish with fresh sage leaves.

Expert Tips

  • tip 1
    Always read labels to make sure each recipe ingredient is gluten free. Products and ingredient sources can change.
  • tip 2
    Choose orange-fleshed sweet potatoes with dark brownish-orange skins. These sweet potatoes are moist, sweet and add beautiful color to recipes.
  • tip 3
    To accurately check the temperature of the tenderloin, insert a meat or instant-read thermometer into the thickest part. Pork is done when the thermometer reads 145° F. Let stand 3 to 5 minutes before slicing.
