Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line baking sheet with aluminum foil. Add tenderloin to the baking pan. In a small bowl, combine the rosemary, parsley and one tablespoon of olive oil. Set aside.
- Generously season tenderloin with salt, pepper and paprika. Drizzle on the olive oil and add the peeled garlic cloves. to the pan. Cover the pan and place the pork in the fridge while the oven is preheating.
- While the oven is heating, prepare the glaze. Mix all the glaze ingredients in a small pan and let it come to a lively simmer for 20 minutes, until reduced and slightly thick.
- The sauce will slightly cover the back of a spoon and look syrupy. At the end of the cooking, you should see large, excited bubbles (this is the sugar caramelizing), so if you don't see those, keep cooking a little bit more. When sauce is ready, set aside.
- Remove the pork from the fridge and uncover it. Place the pan in the heated oven. When pork is halfway done, drizzle some of the glaze on top of the pork and baste with the juices from the bottom of the pan. If it seems too dry, add 1/4 cup more of water (more if needed).
- When there are 10 minutes left of the baking time, spoon on the rest of the glaze. Bake until pork is 150 degrees internally at the widest part of the tenderloin (about 25 minutes.)
- When pork has come to temperature, remove and let rest for at least five minutes to lock in juices. Spoon over the rest of the glaze and toss on top the fresh rosemary and parsley oil. Slice against the grain and serve immediately.

Steps:
- Combine the lemon zest, lemon juice, 1/2 cup olive oil, garlic, rosemary, thyme, mustard, and 2 teaspoons salt in a sturdy 1-gallon resealable plastic bag. Add the pork tenderloins and turn to coat with the marinade. Squeeze out the air and seal the bag. Marinate the pork in the refrigerator for at least 3 hours but preferably overnight.
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- Remove the tenderloins from the marinade and discard the marinade but leave the herbs that cling to the meat. Sprinkle the tenderloins generously with salt and pepper. Heat 3 tablespoons olive oil in a large oven-proof saute pan over medium-high heat. Sear the pork tenderloins on all sides until golden brown. Place the saute pan in the oven and roast the tenderloins for 10 to 15 minutes or until the meat registers 137 degrees F at the thickest part. Transfer the tenderloins to a platter and cover tightly with aluminum foil. Allow to rest for 10 minutes. Carve in 1/2-inch-thick diagonal slices. The thickest part of the tenderloin will be quite pink (it's just fine!) and the thinnest part will be well done. Season with salt and pepper and serve warm, or at room temperature with the juices that collect in the platter.

GRILLED ROSEMARY PORK TENDERLOIN
This easy recipe was brought to The Times in a 1994 article about winter grilling, but many readers love this dish year round. Marian Burros called for cutting the pork tenderloin into slices before marinating it in a simple mixture of garlic, red wine and fresh rosemary before grilling, but it works just as well with whole tenderloins and dried rosemary.

Tips:
- Select a tenderloin: Choose a tenderloin that is about 1 1/2 to 2 pounds and has a good amount of marbling. This will ensure that the pork is juicy and flavorful.
- Prepare the marinade: In a large bowl, whisk together the olive oil, rosemary, garlic, salt, and pepper. The rosemary and garlic will provide a delicious flavor to the pork.
- Marinate the pork: Place the pork tenderloin in the marinade and turn to coat. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight. This will allow the flavors of the marinade to penetrate the pork.
- Sear the pork: Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the pork tenderloin and sear on all sides until golden brown. This will help to seal in the juices and give the pork a nice crust.
- Roast the pork: Transfer the pork tenderloin to a baking dish and roast in a preheated oven at 400°F for 20-25 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F. This will ensure that the pork is cooked through but still juicy.
- Let the pork rest: Remove the pork tenderloin from the oven and let it rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing and serving. This will allow the juices to redistribute and make the pork more tender.
Conclusion:
Pork tenderloin with rosemary marinade is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. The rosemary and garlic marinade gives the pork a wonderful flavor, and the roasting process ensures that the pork is cooked through but still juicy. This dish can be served with a variety of sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or rice.
