Ingredients
  

Pork Loin and Marinade

  • 12 oz pork tenderloin
  • 1 tbsp sriracha
  • 1/4 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp chili powder
  • 1/4 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1 tbsp brown sugar
  • 1 tbsp olive oil

Roasted Vegetables

  • 2 cups butternut squash (diced)
  • 1 green apple (diced)
  • 1/4 cup red onions (diced)
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tbsp olive oil

Instructions
 

  • Pre-heat the oven to 400F. Place the butternut squash, apples, and red onions on a sheet pan. Season with salt, garlic powder, and coat with olive oil. Place in the oven to bake for about 15-20 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, mix together the pork marinade in a small bowl. Then, fully coat the pork tenderloin with the marinade.
  • Add oil to a heated pan on medium high heat and sear the pork. Rotate the pork until all sides are seared. This will take about 3 to 4 minutes.
  • Transfer the pork loin to a sheet pan and let it finish cooking in the oven for about 20 o 25 minutes until it reaches an internal temperature of 145F. Remove it from the oven and let it rest on the counter top before slicing it. Enjoy the pork with the roasted vegetables.
