So I never thought that I would have many culinary adventures where I work. Most meals consist of cream of mushroom soup,cream of chicken soup, or something similar. We try to spice things up with garlic powder and some other basic spices but it's something rare to have a legitimate culinary experience. Today the other staff James was wanting something different and a little more healthy than what we usually eat here. He brought a little cookbook with some low fat recipes and we picked a pork tenderloin with a spice rub and a topping of brown sugar garlic and hot sauce. It was delicious!! It was easy to make, it melted in your mouth, and it had a little spicy kick(tingle not burn). I wanna post the recipe cause it was killer.
Ingredients:
16 oz. Pork Tenderloin
1/2 Tbsp. Salt
1/4 Tbsp. Pepper
1/2 Tbsp. Chile Powder
1/2 Tbsp. Cinnamon
2 tsp. Olive Oil
1/4 Cup Brown Sugar
1/2 Tbsp. Garlic (a little more or less depending on what you like)
1/2 Tbsp. Tabasco or your favorite hot sauce
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees
2. Mix salt, pepper, chili powder, cinnamon and coat pork well.
3. Sear in large pan with olive oil to seal in juices.
4. Stir garlic, Tabasco, and brown sugar. Pat on top of tenderloin. place in roasting pan and cook in oven for 30 minutes or until not pink inside.
5. Slice and enjoy!!!!!
So this recipe is super easy and has a lot of room for any curious cook to play around. Good luck and if you try it, leave a comment and let me know what you thought. Happy Eating!
