Best Quick Pork Marinade
Look no further for the very BEST Quick Pork Marinade you'll ever try. Garlic, herbs, and citrus make this the most tasty, juicy pork tenderloin ever!
Servings:4 servings
Ingredients
- ½ cup olive oil
- ½ cup apple cider vinegar
- 2 teaspoons minced garlic , OR 1 teaspoon garlic powder or roasted garlic powder
- 2 teaspoons salt
- ½ teaspoon pepper
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- ½ teaspoon smoked paprika, non-smoked will work fine too
- 3 teaspoons Italian seasoning , OR Herbs de Provence
- 2 pounds pork tenderloin
Instructions
- Combine all marinade ingredients (except for pork) in a jar, cover and shake vigorously.
- Pour marinade into a ziploc bag along with the pork, press out as much of the excess air as you can, then seal the bag and chill for 30 minutes.
For Baking
- Transfer pork to a baking dish and pour half of the marinade over the pork. Bake at 400 degrees for about 40 minutes or until no longer pink in the middle. Slice and serve.
For Grilling
- Wrap pork in foil and grill for 15 minutes, turning throughout to ensure even cooking. Unwrap, place directly on the grill, and continue to grill until completely cooked through and no longer pink in the middle. Slice and serve.
Notes
Serving suggestion: I love to serve this pork tenderloin alongside a salad and some rice pilaf or roasted potatoes.
