Here’s an easy weeknight meal. Just assemble the ingredients and let the oven do the rest. I cut the pork tenderloin into small streaks and placed them on a sheet pan with baby kale and butternut squash. It all bakes for 10 minutes.
A big help is that you can buy butternut squash cubes ready made in the produce section of the market. I added a little cornstarch to the pork sauce. It helps the sauce coat the pork.
Helpful hints
Frozen butternut squash cubes can be used instead of fresh.
Wine vinegar can be used instead of balsamic vinegar.
