A pan dinner is an easy way to make a full meal in one go. Simply combine your meat (chicken, pork, beef, tofu, fish) with chopped vegetables that have the same cooking time on a lined baking sheet, toss with oil, salt, pepper, and any other seasonings you like, fill the pan. in the oven and wait for the timer to sound. dinner is ready.
Roast pork tenderloin is one of my ideal weeknight meats because it cooks quickly (35 minutes), is naturally tender, and its mild flavor means it can be paired with almost any flavoring. Even with just plain olive oil, salt and pepper, it’s great. But to add a little more flavor with minimal effort and mess, I like to mix pure maple syrup and spicy, grainy mustard and use it as a quick sauce for pulled pork. The pairing of maple and mustard is so good, especially for a fall/winter comforting meal. A note about the mustard.
Marinate the pork for extra flavor. Combine the pork and maple-mustard mixture in a gallon-sized plastic bag, squeeze as much air out of the bag as possible, and seal it. Turn the bag a few times to coat the pork on all sides. Refrigerate for 30 minutes and up to 24 hours. When ready to cook, remove the pork from the bag, discarding any remaining liquid.
