Shop the Ingredients

2 pork tenderloins (about 500g each)

4 tbsp olive oil

2 tbsp lemon juice (freshly squeezed)

1 tbsp red wine vinegar

4 garlic cloves, minced

2 tsp dried oregano

1 tsp dried thyme

1 tsp paprika

1/2 tsp ground cumin (optional, for extra flavor)

1/2 tsp ground black pepper

1 tsp sea salt

1/4 tsp crushed red pepper flakes (optional, for a bit of heat)

1 tbsp fresh rosemary (optional, chopped)

Directions

Marinate the Pork:

In a bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, red wine vinegar, minced garlic, oregano, thyme, paprika, cumin, salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes.

Place the pork tenderloins in a large resealable plastic bag or shallow dish.

Pour the marinade over the pork, ensuring it’s well coated.

Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight for deeper flavor.

Roast the Pork:

Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F).

Heat a large oven-safe skillet (or cast-iron pan) over medium-high heat. Add a bit of olive oil to the pan.

Remove the pork from the marinade (reserving the marinade) and sear the tenderloins for about 2 minutes per side, until golden brown

Pour the reserved marinade into the pan and transfer it to the oven.

Roast the pork for 15-20 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 63°C (145°F) for medium doneness.

Rest and Serve:

Remove the pork from the oven and let it rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing. This allows the juices to redistribute.

Slice into medallions and serve with roasted vegetables, Greek salad, tzatziki, or pita bread.

Enjoy the delicious Mediterranean flavors!
