Ingredients

    2 pounds pork tenderloin
    Salt and pepper to taste
    ¼ cup unsalted butter softened
    1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley plus additional for topping
    1 tablespoon fresh thyme remove leaves from the stem
    2 cloves garlic minced
    ½ teaspoon onion powder
    1 tbsp olive oil

Instructions

    Preheat oven to 425 degrees.

    Pat pork dry with paper towels.
    Season all sides of the tenderloin with salt and black pepper. Set aside

In a small bowl add butter, parsley, thyme, garlic and onion powder. Mix well to combine all the ingredients together. Set aside.

In a cast iron skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat.

Add the pork to the skillet and sear for 2-3 minutes each side. This part is important to give the pork a brown crust.

Remove skillet from the heat. Using a fork or spoon, spread the garlic butter mixture over the top of the pork.

Transfer skillet to the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes or until the pork reaches an internal temperature of 145 degrees.
Remove from oven and let rest for 5 minutes.
Slice pork into 1-inch thick slices and serve.
