Ingredients

• 1 lb Pork tenderloin
• 1 tsp Salt
• 0.5 tsp Black pepper
• 1 tsp Cumin
• 1 tsp Chili powder
• 0.5 tsp Cinnamon
• 2 tbsp Olive oil
• 2 tbsp Brown sugar
• 2 cloves Garlic, minced
• 1 tsp Fresh ginger, grated
• 1 tsp Orange zest
• 1 cup Orange juice
• 2 tbsp Soy sauce

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

Step 2

In a small bowl, mix together the salt, black pepper, cumin, chili powder, and cinnamon. Rub the spice mixture all over the pork tenderloin.

Step 3

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 a brown crust forms.

Step 4

Remove the pork tenderloin from the skillet and set aside.

Step 5

In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium and add the brown sugar, minced garlic, grated ginger, and orange zest. Stir until fragrant, about 1 minute.

Step 6

Add orange juice and soy sauce to the skillet. Stir to combine and bring the mixture to a light simmer.

Step 7

Return the pork tenderloin to the skillet, spooning some of the sauce over the top.

Step 8

Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and roast the pork tenderloin for 12-15 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C).

Step 9

Remove the skillet from the oven and let the pork rest for 5 minutes before slicing.

Step 10

Slice the pork tenderloin into medallions and serve with the sauce from the skillet drizzled on top.
