Chef's Note

For the most flavorful crust, toast the panko breadcrumbs in a dry skillet until golden brown before mixing with the herbs and cheese. This adds a deeper flavor and ensures the coating stays crispy. If you prefer a more pronounced herb flavor, add an extra tablespoon of each herb to the breadcrumb mixture.

Ingredients
  • 2 pounds pork tenderloin

  • 2 tablespoons fresh rosemary

  • 2 tablespoons fresh thyme

  • 1 tablespoon fresh sage

  • 4 cloves garlic

  • 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard

  • 3 tablespoons olive oil

  • 1/2 cup panko breadcrumbs

  • 1/4 cup parmesan cheese

  • 4 medium carrots

  • 3 medium parsnips

  • 2 medium red onions

  • 1 pound Brussels sprouts

  • 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar

  • 1 tablespoon honey

  • 1 teaspoon salt

  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper

  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley

Instructions
  • 1

    Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.

  • 2

    Trim any silver skin from 2 pounds of pork tenderloin. Pat dry with paper towels.

  • 3

    Finely chop 2 tablespoons fresh rosemary, 2 tablespoons fresh thyme, and 1 tablespoon fresh sage. Mince 4 cloves of garlic.

  • 4

    In a small bowl, mix 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard with 1 tablespoon olive oil, half of the minced garlic, and half of the chopped herbs. Season with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.

  • 5

    In another bowl, combine 1/2 cup panko breadcrumbs, 1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese, and the remaining herbs. Mix well.

  • 6

    Rub the mustard mixture all over the pork tenderloin, then coat with the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to adhere.

  • 7

    Place the coated pork on one side of the prepared baking sheet.

  • 8

    Peel and cut 4 medium carrots and 3 medium parsnips into 2-inch pieces. Quarter 2 medium red onions. Trim and halve 1 pound of Brussels sprouts.

  • 9

    In a large bowl, toss the vegetables with 2 tablespoons olive oil, remaining minced garlic, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.

  • 10

    Arrange the vegetables on the other side of the baking sheet, ensuring they're in a single layer.

  • 11

    Roast in the preheated oven for 25 minutes.

  • 12

    In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar and 1 tablespoon honey.

  • 13

    After 25 minutes, brush the vegetables with the balsamic-honey mixture and continue roasting for another 20-25 minutes, until the pork reaches an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C) and the vegetables are caramelized.

  • 14

    Remove from oven and let the pork rest for 10 minutes before slicing.

  • 15

    Garnish with 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley before serving.
