Juicy pork tenderloin glistens under a fragrant rub of cumin, garlic, chili, paprika, and black pepper. Charred edges give way to tender slices that taste warmly spiced and deeply savory.

Ingredients

  • 1/2 tbsp cumin
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp chili powder
  • 1 tsp kosher salt
  • 1/2 tsp paprika
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1 pork tenderloin (about 18 oz)

Instructions

  1. Combine the spices then season the tenderloin all over.
  2. Preheat the grill to high, or preheat the broiler to high.
  3. Grill or broil the tenderloin, covered on high 5 minutes on each side, then move to indirect heat if grilling, cover the grill and cook an additional 10 to 12 minutes, turning halfway, until an instant read thermometer inserted in the center reads 145°F* (about 22 to 25 minutes total). For a thicker tenderloin, add more time.
  4. Let the pork rest about 5 minutes before slicing.
