Roasted Garlic Herb Pork Tenderloins

About

Keto Roasted Garlic Herb Pork Tenderloins is a great recipe to use if you want to make-ahead plenty of protein. It is convenient to have a large amount of protein in the fridge, especially on a Low Carb and Keto diet. Raw pork tenderloins are coated with a generous amount of kosher salt, Herbs de Provence, and garlic powder. They are roasted in the oven until nicely browned on all sides. You will love having an ample amount of meat around for all of your protein needs throughout the week. You can use the meat for salad, sandwiches, breakfast with eggs, or a snack with cheese and vegetables.

Why does this recipe use two different temperatures?

The oven is preheated to a lower temperature to allow the pork to cook most of the way through, and then the oven is cranked up to a higher temperature to allow browning on all sides. The two-step method will result in a very juicy tenderloin.

Do I have to use Herbes de Provence on the outside?

No, you can use any variety of spices and seasonings on these pork tenderloins. Use this recipe as a guideline and switch it up to add your favorite flavors. Some different flavors would be chipotle powder, garlic powder, oregano, or a barbecue seasoning. A fajita seasoning would also be delicious.

How do I store extra pork tenderloins?

Store the tenderloins wrapped tightly in several layers of plastic wrap until ready to use.
