Tonight's dinner was a simple Pork Tenderloin - I love the taste of cracked pepper and fennel mixed together, and the texture of this rub was a nice compliment to the tender pork. I served this with a kid favorite: mashed potatoes.
1 pork tenderloin (about 1 lb)
Whisk the following ingredients in a small bowl:
3 Tbs minced garlic
1 1/2 Tbs coarsley crushed black peppercorns
1 1/2 Tbs Fennel seeds
1 1/2 tsps Lemon zest
1 1/2 Tbs fresh lemon juice
1 1/2 Tbs olive oil
1 tsp salt
When the ingredients are combined, rub mixture all over the pork tenderloin. Let rest for 5 minutes.
Put tenderloin in a roasting pan in a 425 degree oven. Bake in oven for 20 to 30 minutes. Let rest for 5 minutes before cutting and serving.
