  1. STEP 1

    STEP 1

    How to bake pork tenderloin in the oven? First, prepare the ingredients for the marinade. Instead of soy sauce, you can use teriyaki sauce. Use any vegetable oil to suit your taste; I use unrefined sunflower oil. Check the composition of the Italian herb mixture - if it contains salt, do not add additional salt to the marinade. You can change and supplement the composition for the marinade as desired.

  2. STEP 2

    STEP 2

    In a separate bowl, combine dry garlic, Italian herbs, ground pepper and salt. Add tomato paste and soy sauce.

  3. STEP 3

    STEP 3

    Mix the marinade thoroughly.

  4. STEP 4

    STEP 4

    Prepare pork tenderloin and onions. Peel the onion, rinse and dry. I advise you to use more onions - they add a special flavor to the finished dish. I have one onion, you take 2 medium ones or 1 large one.

  5. STEP 5

    STEP 5

    Clean the pork tenderloin from films, rinse, and dry with paper towels.

  6. STEP 6

    STEP 6

    Transfer the meat to a bowl and pour over the marinade. Leave the meat to marinate for 3-4 hours, and if possible, it is better overnight. Turn the meat periodically (4 times exactly) so that it is evenly saturated with the marinade.

  7. STEP 7

    STEP 7

    Peel the onion and cut into rings, not too thin.

  8. STEP 8

    STEP 8

    Place onion rings in a baking dish.

  9. STEP 9

    STEP 9

    Place the pork tenderloin on the onion. Pour the marinade over the meat.

  10. STEP 10

    STEP 10

    Cover the pan with foil. Bake the tenderloin for about 1 hour in a preheated oven at 180°C. Determine the exact baking time and temperature based on your oven.

  11. STEP 11

    STEP 11

    Serve the tenderloin hot (as a main course, with some side dish) or cold (as sandwich meat). Bon appetit!

Super recipe! Thanks to the author! I also like this recipe - meat with eggplant in the oven. While vegetables are in season, it will be more relevant.

I made oven-baked pork tenderloin for dinner. The dish is absolutely simple and does not take much time. I had 400 grams of pork tenderloin. I marinated it for about 12 hours. Instead of tomato paste I used ketchup. Garlic powder was replaced with fresh, passed through a press. I ran out of the mixture of Italian herbs, so I replaced it with a little ground cardamom and coriander (about 1/4 teaspoon each). The meat was baked for just under an hour. The meat turned out incredibly tender, soft and very aromatic. The spices gave the pork a very nice taste, making it very tasty and appetizing. Everyone, both children and adults, ate with pleasure. Maria, thank you very much!

How much sunflower oil do you need? There's not a word about this in the ingredients...

Is it possible to close the glass form with its original tight lid? Does the recipe have foil instead of a lid or is that a required element?
