 Ingredients

Main:

• 2 pork tenderloin (about 2 lbs each)
• ½ lb green beans (trimmed)
• 1 medium yellow onion (chopped)

Seasoning:

• 2 tsp garlic salt
• 1 tsp black pepper
• 2 tsp onion powder
• 1 tsp paprika

For cooking:

• 3–4 tbsp butter
• 2 tbsp olive oil (divided)

Maple Dijon glaze:

• 1½ tbsp Dijon mustard
• ½ tbsp soy sauce
• 1½ tbsp brown sugar
• ½ cup maple syrup
• 1 tsp garlic powder
• 1 tsp onion powder
• Pinch black pepper

 Instructions

1. Prep the pork
   Pat the pork tenderloins dry. Rub each with 1 tablespoon olive oil, then season all sides with garlic salt, onion powder, black pepper, and paprika. Place in a baking dish.
2. Add vegetables
   Scatter chopped onions around the pork. Add trimmed green beans around the dish. Slice butter thinly and place over the vegetables.
3. First bake
   Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Cover with foil and bake for 35 minutes.
4. Make the glaze
   In a bowl, mix Dijon mustard, maple syrup, brown sugar, soy sauce, remaining olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper until smooth.
5. Glaze and bake again
   Remove dish from oven, uncover, and pour the glaze evenly over the pork and green beans. Return to oven uncovered and bake for another 20 minutes (adjust time if tenderloins are thinner).
6. Broil for caramelization
   Switch oven to broil and cook for 1–2 minutes until the top is caramelized. Watch closely to prevent burning.
7. Rest and serve
   Turn off the oven and let the dish rest for 10 minutes. Slice the pork and serve with the flavorful juices and vegetables.
