Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a small bowl, combine olive oil, garlic, thyme, rosemary, lemon zest, Dijon mustard, salt, and pepper. Rub this mixture all over the pork tenderloin.
  3. Place pork on one prepared baking sheet. Roast for 25-30 minutes or until internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C). Let rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
  4. Meanwhile, combine farro, chicken broth, bay leaf, and salt in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low. Cover and simmer for 30-35 minutes until tender but still chewy. Drain any excess liquid, remove bay leaf, and let cool slightly.
  5. While pork and farro cook, prepare vegetables. In a large bowl, toss asparagus, sugar snap peas, peas, and spring onions with olive oil, salt, and pepper.
  6. Spread vegetables on the second prepared baking sheet. Roast for 15-20 minutes, until tender-crisp and lightly browned.
  7. Transfer roasted vegetables to a large bowl. Add lemon zest, lemon juice, and fresh dill. Toss to combine.
  8. For meal prep, divide cooked farro among 4 containers. Top with sliced pork tenderloin and roasted spring vegetables.
