Pepper Jelly Pork
Ingredient
-
2 teaspoons chili powder
-
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
-
1 teaspoon ground cumin
-
½ teaspoon salt
-
1 pork tenderloin
-
¼ cup hot pepper jelly
-
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
Direction
-
Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
-
Whisk chili powder, black pepper, ground cumin, and salt together in a small bowl. Rub spice mixture onto all sides of pork tenderloin. Place tenderloin in a shallow roasting pan.
-
Roast tenderloin in the preheated oven until no longer pink in the center, about 30 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 150 degrees F (65 degrees C).
-
Stir pepper jelly and balsamic vinegar together in a saucepan over low heat until jelly is completely melted, 1 to 2 minutes. Brush pepper jelly mixture over pork tenderloin and continue to bake tenderloin until jelly coating is hot, about 5 minutes more. Let pork rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
