Ingredients
1/4 cup Chinese five-spice powder
2 teaspoons coarse salt
1 pork tenderloin (about 1 3/4 pounds)
3 tablespoons canola oil
Preparation
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Combine spice powder and salt on a plate; generously coat pork tenderloins. Heat a large ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat, and pour in oil. Add tenderloins; brown well on all sides, about 4 minutes per side.
Transfer to oven, and roast until meat is cooked through, about 15 minutes or until a meat thermometer inserted in the center registers 160 degrees. Remove from oven; let rest 5 minutes before slicing. Serve.
