- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) to ensure it's ready for roasting the pumpkin.
- Cut the pumpkin into even-sized pieces to ensure they cook uniformly.
- Marinate the pork fillets in the maple syrup, orange juice, ginger, and garlic mix for at least 30 minutes to enhance the flavors.
- Line your baking tray with parchment paper to prevent the pumpkin from sticking and make for easy clean-up.
- Cook the pork fillets until they reach an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C) for optimal tenderness and safety.
- Allow the pork to rest for a few minutes after cooking to let the juices redistribute, ensuring juicy and tender meat.
- Toss the roast pumpkin with arugula and onions just before serving to keep the greens fresh and crisp.
This savory maple-glazed pork paired with the vibrant and fresh roast pumpkin salad is a perfect blend of flavors and textures. The combination of sweet maple and juicy pork alongside the roasted pumpkin and fresh greens makes for a well-rounded meal.
