Ingredients Needed
to make this recipe, you will need the following ingredients:
- Golden Potatoes (Yukon Golds): Ideal for roasting with a creamy, buttery texture. In the UK, use Maris Piper for a fluffy finish or Desiree for a slightly waxy texture.
- Seasonings: Paprika, onion powder, red chilli flakes, and dried herbs create a robust flavour profile with a hint of heat and freshness.
- Pork Tenderloin: Tender and mild, perfect for absorbing spices and maple glaze.
- Crushed Garlic: Adds aromatic, pungent depth.
- Maple Syrup: Provides natural sweetness and a caramelised flavour.
- Salt and Black Pepper: These basic yet essential flavour enhancers are key for elevating the taste of your dishes. No food will ever be bland when these are used to season to taste.
- Broccoli Florets: Roasted to a crispy texture with a nutty, slightly charred flavour.
- Cauliflower Florets: Tender with a mild, sweet taste that contrasts nicely with the pork and potatoes.
- Olive Oil: Helps achieve a golden, crispy finish with a rich, fruity flavour.
- Low Calorie Spray: A lighter alternative to olive oil for roasting. Used alongside some olive oil, it helps reduce the calories in the dish while still achieving a crisp finish.
- Finely Grated Parmesan: Adds a cheesy, savoury note and richness.
Once you've gathered all the ingredients and prepared them accordingly, you're all set to create this easy and delightful recipe.

Variations and Substitutes
Here are some substitute and variation suggestions for the recipe:
- Pork Alternatives: Use boneless pork chops instead of pork tenderloin. Note that pork chops may cook faster.
- Poultry Options: Try chicken thighs or chicken breasts as an alternative. Chicken thighs will have a similar cooking time to pork tenderloin, but chicken breasts may require a shorter cooking time to prevent drying out.
- Vegetable Choices: Swap the broccoli and cauliflower for other vegetables such as carrots, courgette, asparagus, sweet potatoes, or bell peppers, depending on what's available or in season.
- Maple Syrup Swap: you can make a simple swap from maple syrup to honey if you prefer.
- Cheese Variation: Use cheddar instead of Parmesan. Cheddar may melt and brown differently, so adjust the cooking time as needed for even roasting.
- Different side: If you prefer not to use potato wedges, simply omit them and serve the pork and vegetables with rice or a similar side. Cook the rice using your preferred method and add the pork and vegetables to the sheet pan, serving them alongside the rice.
These suggestions will help you adapt or customise the recipe to your preference.
Tips for Perfect Sheet Pan Meals
Achieving the perfect sheet pan meal relies on the size of the tray and ingredient arrangement. For this Sheet Pan Pork Tenderloin recipe, use a spacious sheet pan to prevent overcrowding and ensure even roasting.
Spread the pork, potatoes, and vegetables in a single layer, leaving space between items to avoid steaming and ensure optimal heat distribution.If your tray isn't large enough, use two trays to maintain even cooking. For regular sheet pan meals, investing in a large tray is worthwhile.
To make clean-up easier and prevent sticking, line the sheet pan with parchment paper. You can buy big packs of unbleached parchment paper on Amazon and it's super handy for recipes like this.

FAQ for Sheet Pan Pork Tenderloin
This dish is best enjoyed freshly cooked for the optimal texture and flavour. However you can freeze leftovers. Allow the food to cool completely, then transfer it to an airtight container. It can be frozen for up to 3 months.
Reheat in the oven at 180°C (350°F) for about 15-20 minutes, or until heated through. If using a microwave, be aware that the texture may not be as desirable. When reheating from frozen, first thaw the dish in the fridge overnight. Note that reheating from frozen may cause the pork to overcook, so monitor closely.
