Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).

  2. Pat the pork tenderloin dry with paper towels and place it on a cutting board.

  3. In a small bowl, combine minced garlic, cumin, chili powder, paprika, oregano, salt, black pepper, and lime juice to create a spice mix.

  4. Rub the spice mixture all over the pork tenderloin.

  5. Heat olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the pork tenderloin for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown.

  6. Remove the pork from the skillet. Add sliced onion and bell pepper to the skillet and sauté until slightly softened.

  7. Return the seared pork to the skillet, nestle it among the sautéed vegetables, and roast in the oven for 20-25 minutes at 375°F (190°C) until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C).

  8. Let the pork rest for a few minutes before slicing. Garnish with fresh cilantro before serving.
