Ingredients:

• 1 lb pork tenderloin
• 1 cup mushrooms, sliced
• 2 carrots, julienned
• 2 tablespoons BBQ sauce
• 2 tablespoons soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 1 cup black beans, cooked
• 1/2 cup beef broth
• 1/2 cup vegetable broth
• Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:

1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. In a small bowl, mix the BBQ sauce and soy sauce. Marinate the pork tenderloin in this mixture for at least 30 minutes.
3. In a large skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add sliced mushrooms and carrots, sautéing until softened, about 5-7 minutes.
4. Remove the vegetables from the skillet and set aside. In the same skillet, sear the marinated pork tenderloin for 2-3 minutes on each side until browned.
5. Add the cooked black beans, beef broth, and vegetable broth to the skillet with the pork. Bring to a simmer.
6. Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and roast for 15-20 minutes, or until the pork reaches an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).
7. Remove from the oven and let the pork rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
8. Serve the sliced pork tenderloin topped with the mushroom-carrot medley and black beans.
