Roasted Pork Tenderloin Recipe

Ingredients

• 1 tsp sea salt (or to taste)
• 1/2 tsp black pepper (freshly ground )
• 1 tsp Italian seasoning
• 1 tsp garlic powder
• 1 tsp ground coriander
• 2 Tbsp olive oil (extra light) (or vegetable oil, or avocado oil**)
• 1 1/2 lb pork tenderloin*

Steps

1. 1

   Preheat oven to 400°F with the rack positioned in the middle.

2. 2

   Trim the tenderloin of fat and any silver skin and pat dry with a paper towel. Pierce pork tenderloin all over with a fork and rub with 1 Tbsp oil.

3. 3

   Combine your seasonings and sprinkle the dry rub onto the tenderloin, then use your hands to rub the spices into the tenderloin until evenly coated.

4. 4

   Heat 1 Tbsp oil over med-high heat in a large oven-safe pan (cast iron or a Dutch oven will work). Once the oil is hot, add pork and brown on all sides (6 minutes total).

5. 5

   Place in the oven and bake uncovered at 400°F for 13-15 min, flipping the tenderloin over halfway through baking. Bake until the center of the pork registers at least 150℉ then transfer to a cutting board and let meat rest for 5-10 min. Slice into medallions and serve.
