Prep Time: 5 mins | Total Time: 1 hr | Yields: 4 Servings |
Ingredients:
FOR THE TENDERLOIN:
- 2 tbsp. brown sugar
- 2 tsp. smoked paprika
- 1 tsp. ground cumin
- Zest of 1 lemon
- 1 tsp. kosher salt
- 2 tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 1/2 lb. pork tenderloin
FOR THE HERB SAUCE:
- 1/4 c. extra-virgin olive oil
- 3 tbsp. red wine vinegar
- 1/2 c. parsley, finely chopped
- 2 scallions, finely chopped
- 2 tbsp. fresh oregano leaves
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 tsp. crushed red pepper flakes
- Kosher salt
- Freshly ground black pepper
Directions:
- In a small bowl, whisk together brown sugar, paprika, cumin, and salt. Stir in olive oil to form a paste. Spread paste all over tenderloin.
- Heat grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Grill pork, turning occasionally with tongs, until charred and a thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the tenderloin reads 145, about 20 minutes. (For larger tenderloins, bake in a 400º oven for 15 to 25 minutes more, until desired internal temperature is reached.)
- Make herb sauce: In a medium bowl, stir together all ingredients and season with salt and pepper.
- Let rest 10 minutes, then slice and serve with herb sauce.
