Look no further than Pork Tenderloin Fried Rice for a complete meal-in-a-bowl that also lends well to meal-prepping. While Snake River Farms American Kurobuta Pork Tenderloin is roasting in the oven, sauté onions and garlic with frozen peas and carrots (the perfect time-saving tip!) before adding rice, scrambled eggs and a splash of soy sauce. All that’s left to do is stir in the diced pork tenderloin then serve. Bonus: Leftovers reheat like a breeze!

Ingredients
-
1 Kurobuta pork tenderloin
-
1 teaspoon garlic powder
-
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
-
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, divided
-
2 large eggs, lightly whisked
-
1 cup diced yellow onion
-
1 tablespoon minced garlic
-
1 1/2 cups frozen peas and diced carrots, thawed
-
1/2 cup sliced scallions, plus more for topping
-
4 cups cooked and cooled long-grain white rice
-
1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce
Directions
Place an over proof skillet on the center rack in the oven. Preheat the oven to 450°F.
While the skillet and oven heat up, thoroughly dry the pork tenderloin with paper towels then season it all sides with the garlic powder, kosher salt and pepper.
Once the pan has been in the oven for 10 minutes. Flip the tenderloin once, reduce the oven to 400°F, and roast the tenderloin for an additional 10 to 15 minutes, or until it reaches an internal temperature of 145°F.
Remove the tenderloin from the oven, transfer it to a cutting board and tent it with foil. Let it rest for 5 minutes before dicing into small cubes and setting aside.
Add 1 tablespoon butter to a large skillet set over medium-low heat. Once the butter has melted, add the eggs, plus a pinch of salt and pepper to the skillet and scramble to your desired consistency. Transfer eggs to plate.
Add the remaining 1 tablespoon butter then add the onions and garlic. Cook, stirring, until the onions are translucent, about 3 minutes. Add the peas, carrots, scallions, rice, soy sauce and diced pork, stirring to combine. Cook over low heat until warmed through then serve garnished with additional sliced scallions.
