This is the juiciest baked pork tenderloin recipe ever. It's coated in an easy spice rub, quickly browned in a pan which creates a lovely crust, then baked in a simple pan sauce to keep it incredibly tender, juicy, and delicious. The melt-in-your-mouth tender pork tastes amazing as leftovers, too!

Provided by Kristen Stevens

Categories     Dinner

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 pork tenderloins (about 1 lb each)
1 tablespoon paprika
2 teaspoons EACH: onion powder and garlic powder
1 teaspoon EACH: oregano, salt, and pepper
1 tablespoon cooking oil
½ cup beef broth
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
1 tablespoon butter (can sub ghee for dairy-free)
Minced parsley (to serve)

Steps:

  • Preheat your oven to 400 degrees. Dry the pork tenderloins well with paper towels.
  • Mix the paprika, onion powder, garlic powder, oregano, salt, and pepper together in a small bowl. Rub this spice mix over all sides of the pork.
  • Heat the oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Add the pork, working in 2 batches if your pan is not big enough to fit both tenderloins without them touching. Sear the pork on all sides until it is brown, about 6 minutes total. Take the pan off the heat.
  • Move the pork to a baking dish. If the spices left in the pan are black, wipe them away with a paper towel. Return the pan to the heat and add the beef broth. Scrape the bottom of the pan to remove any stuck-on bits then boil for 1 minute until it reduces to about ¼ cup. Pour this sauce over the pork.
  • Pour the apple cider vinegar over the pork then dot the top with the butter. Cover the baking dish with foil.
  • Bake the pork for 20-25 minutes, or until it reaches an internal temperature of 145 degrees. Let the pork rest for 5 minutes before slicing into 1/4 inch thick rounds. Serve with a little minced parsley, for color.

Time 40m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 19

2 tablespoons smoked paprika
1 tablespoon packed brown sugar
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
2 pork tenderloins
1 cup store-bought barbecue sauce
2 tablespoons olive oil
Grilled Pineapple Pepper Relish, recipe follows, for serving
1/2 pineapple, cored and sliced into rings
5 tablespoons olive oil
3 jalapeños, halved and seeded (or leave some seeds for more heat)
1 poblano pepper, halved and seeded
1 large red bell pepper, quartered
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
1 tablespoon agave syrup
1 lime, zested and juiced

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with foil.
  • Mix the paprika, brown sugar, garlic and onion powders, salt and pepper in a small bowl. Season the pork tenderloins liberally with the seasoning mixture.
  • Pour 1/3 cup of the barbecue sauce into a small bowl for brushing on the seared pork and reserve the remaining 2/3 cup for serving.
  • Add the olive oil to a skillet and place over medium heat. When the oil is hot, sear the pork until nicely browned on all sides, 4 to 5 minutes. Transfer the pork to the prepared baking sheet and brush with some of the barbecue sauce.
  • Transfer to the oven and cook, brushing with the barbecue sauce and turning every 5 minutes, until the meat is sticky, charred and cooked through, about 15 minutes. Turn the oven to broil at 500 degrees F and broil until bubbly on top, 1 to 2 minutes. Let rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
  • Serve topped with the Grilled Pineapple-Pepper Relish and the reserved barbecue sauce on the side.
  • Heat a grill pan or grill over medium heat.
  • Lightly brush the pineapple with 1 tablespoon of the olive oil and add to the grill pan. Toss the jalapeños, poblanos and bell peppers with the remaining 4 tablespoons olive oil and a pinch of salt and pepper and add to the grill pan. Grill the pineapple and peppers until slightly charred on both sides, about 5 minutes. Remove to a cutting board. Chop into small dice and add to a bowl. Add the cilantro, agave and lime zest and juice. Toss to combine.

ARIZONA PORK TENDERLOIN RECIPE



Arizona Pork Tenderloin Recipe image

Provided by á-463

Number Of Ingredients 12

Sauce:
1 1-lb. pork tenderloin
1 TB. ARIZONA DREAMING
4 Cups cooked rice
1 TB. canola oil
1 large onion, chopped
1-2 TB. ARIZONA DREAMING
11/2 Cups water, divided
11/2 Cups chopped fresh tomatoes (we used cherry tomatoes)
2 tsp. honey
1-2 TB. fresh cilantro, finely minced (optional)
1/3 Cup sour cream

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325°. Wash pork, pat dry. Season with the ARIZONA DREAMING. Place in a roasting pan and cook until the desired doneness is reached (165° will take 40-50 minutes). While the pork is in the oven, prepare the sauce. For the sauce, heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion. After about 3 minutes, when the onion is turning translucent but not brown, add the ARIZONA DREAMING and stir. Then add 1 cup of the water, the tomatoes and honey. Cook 20 minutes, stirring frequently to break up the tomatoes. After 20 minutes, add the remaining water, along with the minced cilantro if using. Remove the pan of sauce from the heat. Using a slotted spoon, mix about half of the sauce into the cooked rice. The slotted spoon helps you get the chunkier bits and less liquid into the rice. Pour the remaining sauce into a medium bowl and gently mix in the sour cream. Slice the pork into thin pieces and serve with the seasoned rice. Pour the sauce over the meat or serve in a dipping bowl.

SOUTHERN PORK TENDERLOIN

I love this recipe because it's very easy and very much an under-20-minute recipe when you are in a hurry! I serve it with garlic mashed potatoes and a side of either mixed veggies or some sweet corn on the cob! I top it with my Mustard Pork Garnish recipe I have on site.

Time 25m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 cups panko bread crumbs
1 tablespoon parsley flakes
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
½ teaspoon ground black pepper
1 (1 pound) pork tenderloin, cut crosswise into 1/2-inch thick slices
¼ cup olive oil

  • Heat olive oil over medium-high heat in a skillet and fry the pork until the crumb coating is browned and the pork is no longer pink inside, 2 to 3 minutes per side. An instant-read meat thermometer inserted into the center of the pork should read at least 145 degrees F (65 degrees C).

Tips:

  • To ensure the pork tenderloin cooks evenly, use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature. It should reach 145°F (63°C) for medium-rare or 160°F (71°C) for medium.
  • If you don't have a meat thermometer, you can check the doneness of the pork tenderloin by cutting into it. The meat should be slightly pink in the center for medium-rare or cooked through for medium.
  • Let the pork tenderloin rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving. This will help the juices redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a more tender and flavorful dish.
  • Serve the pork tenderloin with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a simple salad.
  • For a more flavorful dish, you can marinate the pork tenderloin in a mixture of olive oil, garlic, herbs, and spices before cooking.
  • If you're short on time, you can cook the pork tenderloin in a skillet over medium heat. Just be sure to adjust the cooking time accordingly.

Conclusion:

Arizona pork tenderloin is a delicious and versatile dish that can be easily prepared in a variety of ways. Whether you're looking for a quick and easy weeknight meal or a special occasion dish, this recipe is sure to please everyone at the table.
