In the meantime, combine breadcrumbs, basil, thyme, olive oil, salt and pepper. Moisten tenderloin with water and press crumb mixture onto all sides.
Place the pork tenderloin on the sheet pan with the potatoes and roast for another 20-25 minutes, until potatoes are tender and pork registers at least 145 degrees. Let the pork rest for at least 5 minutes before slicing.

Notes
I use new potatoes for this dish (which are just small, young potatoes) but you can substitute Yukon potatoes or small red potatoes. Just be sure they are cut to a similar size so they roast evenly.
