Step-by-Step Guided Instructions

FLUFF-FREE GUIDED STEPS
1Season Carrots First

Line a sheet pan with parchment. Toss 1 lb whole peeled baby carrots (or sliced whole carrots) with 1 tbsp olive oil, 1/2 tsp kosher salt, and 1/4 tsp black pepper. Spread across half the pan.

💡 Dad Pro Tip:

Carrots roast sweet and tender when cut to a uniform 1/2-inch thickness.

2Whisk Honey Dijon Glaze

In a small bowl, whisk 2 tbsp Dijon mustard, 2 tbsp honey, 1 tbsp olive oil, 2 minced garlic cloves, 1/2 tsp dried rosemary, and 1 tsp kosher salt.

💡 Dad Pro Tip:

Dijon provides acidity that tenderizes pork while honey caramelizes under oven heat.

3Glaze & Roast
⏱️ 25 MINS

Trim silverskin from a 1.5 lb pork tenderloin. Place on the other half of the sheet pan. Slather the glaze evenly over the entire tenderloin. Roast in a 400°F oven for 22 to 25 minutes.

💡 Dad Pro Tip:

Pull tenderloin at 140°F; carryover heat during resting will bring the center to exactly 145°F.

4Carryover Rest & Slice
⏱️ 10 MINS

Transfer pork tenderloin to a cutting board. Tent loosely with foil and rest for 10 minutes. Carve into 1/2-inch thick juicy medallions.

💡 Dad Pro Tip:

Resting preserves all the internal juices inside the meat rather than losing them on the board.

Dad Pro Tip

Add halved baby red potatoes alongside the carrots to make this a 100% complete one-pan dinner.

👶 Kid & Toddler Adjustment:

Kids love the sweet honey glaze; serve carrots with a little extra maple syrup.

Suggested Sides:
  • Apple slaw
  • Baked sweet potatoes
