Instructions
Preparation Steps
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Begin by trimming any excess fat from the pork tenderloin and patting it dry. This helps it sear nicely in the oven.
In a small bowl, mix together the olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Massage this seasoning mix all over the pork tenderloin for great flavor.
Next, chop the potatoes into bite-sized pieces and toss them with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread them out on one side of a large baking sheet.
Place the carrots on the baking sheet along with the potatoes, then position the seasoned pork tenderloin in the center. This allows everything to roast beautifully together.
Roast in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes, or until the pork reaches an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C). This will give you juicy pork and tender veggies.
Once done, remove from the oven and let the pork rest for five minutes before slicing. This helps retain the juices. Serve everything warm and enjoy your delightful meal!
