Main Dishes

Ingredients

1.5 pounds pork tenderloin

2 tsp pimenton

1/4 tsp sea salt

1/4 tsp freshly ground black pepper

2 T olive oil, divided

+Everything necessary for Romesco Sauce

Directions

Make the Romesco Sauce.

Preheat oven to 350F. Set a wire cooling rack over a rimmed baking sheet and place in the oven.

In a small bowl, mix together the pimenton, salt, and pepper. Rub the tenderloin all over and drizzle with one tablespoon of oil.

Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add remaining oil. When the oil just starts to shimmer, add the tenderloin and brown on all sides, about 5 minutes.

Transfer the pork tenderloin to the wire rack in the oven, and roast until the internal temperature of the pork registers 145F on an instant-read thermometer, about 15 minutes. When the pork is cooked, remove from the oven and allow to sit for 10 minutes before slicing.

To serve arrange spread of pork slices & ladle over generous portion of Romesco.
