Ingredients

• 1.5 pounds pork tenderloin
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 3 medium, minced garlic cloves
• 1 tablespoon, chopped fresh rosemary
• 1 tablespoon, chopped fresh thyme
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 1 cup chicken broth

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

Step 2

Trim any silver skin or excess fat from the pork tenderloin.

Step 3

In a small bowl, combine olive oil, minced garlic, rosemary, thyme, salt, pepper, paprika, and lemon juice.

Step 4

Rub the spice and herb mixture evenly over the entire surface of the pork tenderloin.

Step 5

Heat a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat.

Step 6

Add the pork tenderloin to the skillet and sear on all sides until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes per side. This helps to lock in the juices.

Step 7

Once seared, pour the chicken broth around the pork tenderloin in the skillet.

Step 8

Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and roast for about 12-15 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C).

Step 9

Carefully remove the skillet from the oven and let the pork rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing.

Step 10

Slice the pork tenderloin into 1/2 inch thick slices and serve with the pan juices drizzled over the top.
