Yield Makes 6 to 8 (main course)

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 tablespoons olive oil, divided
3 garlic cloves, minced
3/4 cup panko (Japanese bread crumbs)
3/4 cup sliced almonds, toasted, cooled, and coarsely ground in a food processor
4 teaspoons finely chopped rosemary
2 1/2 teaspoons pimentón (smoked paprika), divided
2 tablespoons Madeira
2 (1-pound) pork tenderloins

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425°F with rack in middle.
  • Heat 2 tablespoon oil in a large heavy skillet over medium-high heat until it shimmers, then sauté garlic until pale golden, about 30 seconds. Stir in panko, almonds, rosemary, 1/2 teaspoon pimentón, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/8 teaspoon pepper. Transfer to a large plate.
  • Stir together Madeira, remaining 2 tablespoons oil and 2 teaspoons pimentón, and 1/4 teaspoon each of salt and pepper in a shallow dish. Pat pork dry and rub all over with mixture. Pat three fourths of crumbs all over pork, pressing gently to adhere, then sprinkle tops with remaining crumbs.
  • Roast until an instant-read thermometer inserted diagonally 2 inches into meat registers 145 to 150°F, about 20 minutes. (Check after 15 minutes to see if crumbs are getting too dark; if they are, tent loosely with foil.) Transfer pork to a cutting board. Tent loosely with foil and let stand 10 minutes before slicing.

Tips:

  • To ensure the pork tenderloin is cooked evenly, use a meat thermometer to check that the internal temperature has reached 145°F (63°C) for medium-rare, 155°F (68°C) for medium, or 165°F (74°C) for well done.
  • For a crispy crust, sear the pork tenderloin in a hot skillet before roasting it in the oven.
  • To add extra flavor to the pork, marinate it in a mixture of olive oil, garlic, herbs, and spices for at least 30 minutes before cooking.
  • If you don't have a meat thermometer, you can check if the pork tenderloin is cooked by cutting into it. The meat should be pink in the center with no traces of red.
  • Serve the pork tenderloin with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a salad.

Conclusion:

Spanish crusted roast pork tenderloin is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a special occasion or a weeknight meal. The tenderloin is marinated in a flavorful mixture of olive oil, garlic, herbs, and spices, then seared in a hot skillet and roasted in the oven until cooked through. The result is a juicy and flavorful pork tenderloin with a crispy crust. Serve with your favorite sides for a complete meal.
