Ingredients

  • 2 pork tenderloins (about 3/4 lb each)
  • 1 cup soft bread crumbs (about 1 1/2 slices bread)
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh or 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme leaves
  • 1 tablespoon olive or vegetable oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon fennel seed
  • 1/4 teaspoon coarsely ground pepper
  • 2 cloves garlic, finely chopped

Instructions

  • Step 
    1
    Heat oven to 450°F. Spray shallow roasting pan and rack with cooking spray. Place pork tenderloins on rack in pan.
  • Step 
    2
    In small bowl, mix remaining ingredients. Spoon herb mixture evenly over pork. Insert ovenproof meat thermometer so tip is in the thickest part of pork. Cover pork loosely with foil.
  • Step 
    3
    Bake 20 minutes; remove foil. Bake uncovered 10 to 15 minutes longer or until thermometer reads 155°F. Cover pork loosely with foil and let stand 10 to 15 minutes or until thermometer reads 160°F. (Temperature will continue to rise about 5°F, and pork will be easier to carve.)
