Ingredients Needed:

• 1 or 2 half-pound pork tenderloins
• 1 tablespoon oil
• 2-3 tablespoons fresh lemon, lime, or orange juice
• 2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon cumin
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon chili powder
• ½ teaspoon smoked paprika
• ¼ teaspoon black pepper

How To Make Pork Tenderloin Recipe?

1. Prep the Pork: Pierce the pork tenderloins with a fork and rub with oil.
2. Mix the Seasoning: In a bowl, combine the Italian seasoning, garlic powder, cumin, salt, chili powder, paprika, and black pepper.
3. Season the Pork: Sprinkle the seasoning mix over the pork, pressing it into the meat on all sides.
4. Add the Juice: Place the pork in the baking dish and drizzle with lemon, lime, or orange juice.
5. Bake the Pork: Bake for 25-35 minutes, until browned and cooked to your liking.
6. Rest and Serve: Let the pork rest for 5-10 minutes, slice, and spoon the juices over the slices. Garnish with cilantro if desired.

Recipe Tips:

• Marinate for Better Taste: Let the pork sit in the seasoning mix for 30 minutes to 2 hours. This makes the pork more flavorful.
• Use a Meat Thermometer: Check the internal temperature. Pork should reach 63°C (145°F) for a slightly pink center.
• Rest the Meat: Let the pork rest for 5-10 minutes after cooking to keep it juicy.
• Use Fresh Juice: Fresh lemon, lime, or orange juice tastes better than bottled juice.
• Cook Longer for Thick Pork: If the tenderloin is thick, cook it 5-10 minutes longer. Use a thermometer to check doneness.

How To Store & Reheat Leftovers?

• Refrigerate: Let the pork cool to room temperature before putting it in the fridge. Store it in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
• Freeze: Freeze the pork for up to 3 months.
• Reheat: Heat some oil in a pan and cook the sliced pork for 3-4 minutes until warm.
