Categories     main-dish

Time 35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1 teaspoon dried thyme
Salt
1 1/4 pounds pork tenderloin
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon minced garlic

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
  • In separate bowl mix dry ingredients such as garlic powder, oregano, cumin, coriander, thyme and salt. Stir mixture with a fork until all the ingredients are well combined and they form a seasoning. This will be used as a rub to ensure the pork is well seasoned throughout. Sprinkle the rub over the tenderloin with a dry hand, then rub the pork with the seasoning over both sides of the meat, pressing gently so the seasoning adheres well to the tenderloin.
  • In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add the olive oil and heat. Add the minced garlic and saute, stirring, for 1 minute. Put tenderloin in the pan and cook for about 10 minutes, searing each side using tongs to turn the meat. Transfer meat to a roasting pan and bake for 20 minutes. Slice and serve.

Tips:

  • Choose the right herbs: The herbs you use in your rub will determine the overall flavor, so choose herbs that you enjoy and that will complement the meat or fish you're cooking.
  • Use fresh herbs whenever possible: Fresh herbs will give your rub the best flavor, but if you don't have fresh herbs on hand, dried herbs can be used as well.
  • Grind the herbs finely: Finely ground herbs will blend better with the other ingredients in your rub and will be easier to apply to the meat or fish.
  • Use a mortar and pestle to grind the herbs: A mortar and pestle will give you the finest grind, but you can also use a spice grinder or a blender.
  • Combine the herbs with other seasonings: In addition to herbs, you can also add other seasonings to your rub, such as salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika.
  • Use the rub generously: Don't be afraid to use a lot of rub, as this will help to create a flavorful crust on the meat or fish.
  • Let the rub sit on the meat or fish for at least 30 minutes before cooking: This will give the rub time to penetrate the meat or fish and develop its flavor.
  • Cook the meat or fish according to your desired doneness: The cooking time will vary depending on the type of meat or fish you're cooking and the desired doneness.

Conclusion:

Using a herb rub is a great way to add flavor to your meat or fish. With so many different herbs and seasonings to choose from, you can create a rub that is perfect for your taste. Experiment with different combinations of herbs and seasonings until you find a rub that you love. Once you've found a rub that you love, you can use it on all of your favorite meats and fish.
