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.

Steps:
- 1. In small bowl, mix dry rub ingredients and set aside. Cut off any excess fat from the pork and remove any sinew (the tough fibrous tissue). Cover the pork tenderloins on all sides with dry rub and refrigerate overnight or for at least 8 hours. (*I coated them each on 2 separate sheets of plastic wrap and wrapped them tightly, placed them in a 9x11 baking dish and marinated them overnight.) In small bowl, mix mop sauce ingredients. Heat in microwave until hot to melt honey. Stir well, set outside by grill. Pre heat gas grill 5 minutes before cooking. Place pork tenderloins on hot grill (medium-high) with tongs. Close lid and grill the pork for 5 minutes, turn over and grill 5 minutes longer. Turn again and heavily baste with mop sauce, close lid and grill 5 minutes. Turn over, baste again and close lid for 5 more minutes. (*Total cooking time is 20 minutes.) Remove to a baking dish, cover, and let rest 5 minutes. Remove to cutting board and slice to serve.
- 2. *Leftover rub and mop sauce is also good on chicken, wings, and fish!

Steps:
- Heat broiler; set rack 4 inches from heat. Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil. Rub pork with oil; season with salt and pepper. Broil 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, whisk together jam and mustard. Cook over medium heat until jam melts, 3 to 4 minutes; remove from heat. Transfer half to a small bowl for brushing. Cover pan to keep remaining sauce warm.
- Remove pork from broiler; brush with reserved sauce. Continue broiling until pork is blackened in spots and registers 150 degrees on an instant-read thermometer, 5 to 10 minutes more.
- Cover pork loosely with foil; let rest 5 minutes before slicing. Serve drizzled with warm sauce.
Tips:
- For the best flavor, use a high-quality Dijon mustard and apricot preserves.
- If you don't have a meat thermometer, cook the pork tenderloin until it reaches an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C) for medium-rare, or 160°F (71°C) 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.
- The Dijon apricot mop sauce can also be used to glaze other meats, such as chicken or salmon.
- Serve the pork tenderloin with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or rice.
