Ingredients
- 1 (600 grams) Pork Tenderloin
- ½ tsp Garlic Powder
- ½ tsp Onion Powder
- ½ tsp Cumin Powder
- ½ tsp Smoked Paprika
- ½ tsp Dry Oregano
- ½ tsp Black Pepper Powder
- 1 tsp Salt, or to taste
- 2 tsp Lemon Juice
- 2 tsp Olive Oil
- 2 tbsp Dijon Mustard
- ¼ tsp Rosemary, diced
- ¼ tsp Thyme, diced
- 1 tbsp Butter
Method
- Wash the pork tenderloin and using a knife, clean it removing any membrane or silver skin.
- In a small bowl, make a dry rub by mixing the garlic powder, onion powder, cumin powder, smoked paprika, dry oregano, black pepper powder, and salt.
- Sprinkle and pat the dry rub down on all sides of the pork tenderloin.
- Once the pork tenderloin has been coated all around with the dry rub, drizzle on the lemon juice and oil and pat them down on the pork once again.
- Cover and allow the pork tenderloin to marinate for 30 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 400F/200C and to a heated skillet on medium-high heat, toss in the butter.
- When the butter has melted, place the marinated pork tenderloin in the skillet and sear it on all sides until you get some colour on it.
- Once the pork tenderloin has seared on all sides, place the skillet in the oven if you are using an oven-proof skillet. Otherwise, transfer the pork tenderloin to a baking dish or baking tray and allow it to cook for 12-15 minutes.
- Remove from the oven and leave it to rest for about 10 minutes before cutting it with a serrated knife for a clean cut.
- Serve on a bed of creamy mashed potato and pour on some of the buttery drippings from the skillet.
