Roasted Pork Tenderloin with Mushroom Gravy
This roasted pork tenderloin is juicy, tender, and coated in a rich savory glaze that pairs perfectly with the deep flavor of mushrooms and onions. Slow-roasted until beautifully caramelized, then served in a silky sauce, this dish feels elegant enough for special occasions while still being easy to make at home.
Ingredients
2 pork tenderloins
2 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp paprika
Salt and black pepper
2 tbsp butter
1 small onion, chopped
2 cups mushrooms
1 cup beef broth
1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce

Instructions
Start by preheating the oven to 200°C (400°F).
Rub the pork tenderloins with olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and sear the pork on all sides until golden brown.
Transfer the pork to a baking dish and roast for about 20–25 minutes, or until cooked through.
While the pork roasts, melt butter in the same skillet. Add onions and mushrooms, cooking until softened and browned.
Pour in beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, and balsamic vinegar. Let the sauce simmer and reduce slightly.
Stir in fresh rosemary and season to taste.
Slice the pork tenderloin and spoon the mushroom gravy generously over the top before serving.
