Ingredients

Pork and Vegetables

  • 1 pound pork tenderloin
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 tablespoons avocado oil divided
  • 1/2 teaspoon sweet paprika omit for nightshade-free
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground coriander
  • 1/4 pound asparagus cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 1/4 pound cherry tomatoes omit for nightshade-free and double the asparagus

Dill Sauce

  • 2 ounces sour cream or Kite Hill cream cheese for dairy-free
  • 1/4 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 2 sprigs dill minced
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
  • pickle juice or water as needed to thin the sauce to a drizzle consistency

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 450ĀŗF, line a rimmed baking sheet with foil, and grease it with a bit of olive oil. Set aside.
  • Season the pork tenderloin with salt and pepper, rub with the tablespoon of olive oil then sprinkle with paprika and coriander. Place the pork on the baking sheet.
  • Toss the tomatoes and asparagus with a generous pinch of salt and 1 tablespoon of avocado oil. Spread the vegetables around the pork and roast for 20-25 minutes, or until the pork registers 145ĀŗF.
  • Rest the pork at least 5 minutes before serving. If the vegetables are not yet caramelized, return to the oven and cook another 5-10 minutes.
  • While the pork is cooking, prepare the sauce. Stir together all the sauce ingredients, taste and adjust seasoning with salt and vinegar, as needed.

Notes

If making this dairy-free, warm the Kite Hill cream cheese with a bit of chicken broth, water, or pickle juice to thin to a sauce consistency.
