4 servings
For the marinade
- 1 ½ lb pork tenderloin (1 large or 2 small)
- 3 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil, divided
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 lemon, zested and juiced (about 3 tbsp juice)
- 1 tbsp fresh rosemary, finely chopped
- 1 tbsp fresh thyme leaves
- 1 tsp ground turmeric
- ½ tsp black pepper, freshly ground
Ingredient noteDried black pepper can sometimes contain mold toxins, but the trace amount used here is so small that it is likely tolerated by many. When possible, use a recently purchased organic spice and store it tightly closed in a cool, dry place. If you prefer to always avoid black pepper, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
- ¾ tsp kosher salt
For serving
- 1 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped (optional)
- lemon wedges, for serving (optional)
Instructions
- 1
In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tbsp of the olive oil, the garlic, lemon zest, lemon juice, rosemary, thyme, turmeric, black pepper, and salt until combined.

Pat the pork tenderloin dry with paper towels, then place it in a shallow dish or zip-top bag. Pour the marinade over the pork, turning to coat on all sides. Marinate at room temperature for 30 minutes, or refrigerate for up to 8 hours.
