Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Trim any excess fat from pork and pat dry with a paper towel. Season with salt and pepper. Dust with flour, shaking off any excess.
In a large skillet, heat 1 to 2 tbsp of vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Sear the pork in the oil, rotating to brown evenly all sides. Transfer to a baking dish just large enough to fit the tenderloin.
In a bowl, stir together the Italian-style salad dressing, honey and onion soup mix. Pour evenly over the tenderloin, rolling the meat to coat on all sides. Cover with aluminum foil.
Bake, covered, in the preheated oven for 30 minutes, basting with glaze every 10 minutes. Remove the foil and continue baking another 30 minutes, or until pork is no longer pink in the center.
