Steps
- Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a large rimmed sheet pan with parchment.
- Make the herb paste: in a small bowl stir together the garlic, rosemary, thyme, black pepper, half the salt and one third of the olive oil.
- Pat the pork tenderloin dry, rub it all over with the mustard, then spread the herb paste over the mustard. Set it aside while you prep the vegetables.
- On the sheet pan, toss the sweet potato and onion with half of the remaining olive oil and half of the remaining salt. Spread in an even layer and roast 15 minutes.
- Meanwhile, toss the zucchini in a bowl with the last of the olive oil and the last of the salt.
- Take out the pan, stir the sweet potato and onion, push them to the edges, and scatter the zucchini around. Set the pork in the center.
- Roast 20 to 25 minutes, until the vegetables are browned and the pork reaches 145°F (63°C) in the thickest part.
- Move the pork to a cutting board and rest it 3 minutes, then slice it.
- Drizzle the lemon juice over the vegetables, scraping up the browned bits, and sprinkle with the parsley. Serve the sliced pork over the vegetables.
