We got addicted to this when one of our friends volunteered to cook for us. We just let her invade the kitchen of our host and voila! The lunch was ready in just a few minutes. We almost couldn’t believe it! This recipe sure is perfect to serve to impatient hungry friends who invite themselves over! Our friend over at Tidy Mom has this to say about this recipe:
“Your taste buds will be tantalized with each bite of this Sweet and Spicy Glazed Pork Tenderloin. Juicy and flavorful, it’s a little sweet and a little spicy and a breeze to make. You’ll have dinner on the table in about 30 minutes.”
I actually love the touch of spiciness in this one. It gives it that much needed kick that somehow makes it more special than regular pork tenderloin recipes. The bonus part is that it’s easy to prepare. It will be ready in about 30-minutes! How convenient is that?
Ingredients
2 Tyson pork tenderloins (2 1/4 to 2 1/2 pounds total)
2 tablespoons Bertolli olive oil
For Rub:
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon McCormick white pepper
1 teaspoon McCormick ground cumin
1 teaspoon McCormick chili powder
1 teaspoon McCormick cinnamon
For Glaze:
1/2 cup packed Domino dark brown sugar
2 tablespoons minced garlic
1 tablespoon Sriracha sauce
Instructions:
Preheat oven to 350°F.
In a small bowl, combine pepper, cumin, chili power and cinnamon. Coat pork with seasonings, massage and rub into meat.
In a large oven-proof skillet (I used cast-iron), heat oil over medium-high heat. Add pork, and brown for about 4 minutes. Turning often to sear all sides. Remove skillet from heat.
Combine brown sugar, garlic and Sriracha and spread over top of pork. Place skillet with glazed pork in the oven on middle rack. Roast about 20 minutes, until internal temperature reaches 140°F. Let pork stand in skillet at room temperature 10 minutes before serving (Temperature will rise to about 155°F while standing.)
To serve; cut tenderloin into 1- inch slices and drizzle with glaze from bottom of skillet.
