- Heat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Pat the pork dry and season with salt, pepper and thyme.

- Heat the oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the pork for about 2 minutes per side.
- Spoon half the glaze over the pork. Roast for 12–18 minutes, brushing with the remaining glaze halfway through, until the thickest part reaches 145°F (63°C).
