Net Carbs 1 g

*Net carbs are per serving

Ingredients

2 pork tenderloins, (1 to 1.25 pounds each)
1 teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon black pepper
1 ½ teaspoons dried oregano
1 ½ teaspoons smoked paprika
1 ½ teaspoons garlic powder
1 ½ teaspoons dried thyme
1 ½ teaspoons ground cumin
1 tablespoon olive oil
Garnish: chopped fresh parsley

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 450F/230C.
Mix all the spices together in a small bowl (salt, pepper, dried oregano, smoked paprika, garlic powder, dried thyme, and ground cumin.)
Sprinkle the spice mixture over all sides of the pork tenderloins. Use your hands to rub the spices into the meat.
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add oil.
Carefully add one tenderloin to the hot skillet and sear each side for 1-2 minutes (until lightly browned). Use tongs to turn the tenderloin so that each side gets seared.
Transfer the seared tenderloin to a baking sheet lined with a baking rack. Sear the second tenderloin in the same manner, and transfer to the baking rack once seared.
Bake in the oven for 20-30 minutes, until internal temperature reaches 145F/62.8C. Remove from oven, and lightly cover with foil for 10 minutes while the meat rests.
Slice into 1/2" wide slices, garnish with chopped fresh parsley (optional), and serve warm. Enjoy!
