Ingredients
Instructions
- Line a pan with foil and place the tenderloins on it.
- In a small mixing bowl, stir together soy sauce, olive oil, basil, white wine, salt, garlic powder, and thyme.
- Pour the marinade over the tenderloins, cover, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
- Remove the tenderloins from the marinade and place them on another baking pan.
- Cook in a preheated oven at 475°F for 20 minutes.
- Serve with Jezebel Sauce.
Tips & Substitutions
For extra flavor, marinate the pork tenderloins for several hours or overnight if possible. You can substitute the white wine with chicken broth or apple cider vinegar if needed. If you're short on time, simply season the tenderloins with garlic powder and thyme instead of marinating. Keeping an eye on the internal temperature is crucial; aim for 145°F for perfectly cooked pork.
Serving Suggestions
Serve the pork tenderloins sliced and drizzled with the marinade sauce. They pair beautifully with Jezebel Sauce, which adds a sweet-spicy contrast. For sides, consider roasted vegetables or creamy mashed potatoes. This dish also complements hearty salads or can be served alongside American recipes like Beans And Ham for a well-rounded meal.
Storage & Reheating
Store leftover pork tenderloins in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, place them in a preheated oven at 350°F for about 10-15 minutes, or until warmed through. Avoid microwaving, as it can dry out the meat. For longer storage, consider freezing the cooked tenderloins for up to 3 months.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use a different type of meat for this recipe?
Yes, you can use chicken breasts or thighs as an alternative, but adjust the cooking time accordingly. Chicken should reach an internal temperature of 165°F. Pork recipes generally provide richer flavors, but chicken can be just as delicious with the marinade.
What can I serve with pork tenderloins?
Pork tenderloins are versatile and pair well with various sides. Consider roasted vegetables, garlic mashed potatoes, or a fresh green salad. Serving with Jezebel Sauce adds a nice kick. For a heartier option, you might also enjoy them alongside Ranch Eggs And Grits.
How do I know when the pork is done cooking?
To ensure your pork tenderloins are perfectly cooked, use a meat thermometer. The internal temperature should reach 145°F. Let the meat rest for a few minutes after cooking, as it will continue to cook slightly and the juices will redistribute for maximum flavor.
