1
Prepare the Pork
Trim any excess fat from the pork tenderloin and season it with salt, black pepper, and turmeric powder.
2
Prepare the Vegetables
Wash the little gem lettuce and slice it in half lengthwise. Mince the garlic and finely chop the shallot.

3
Sear the Pork
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the pork tenderloin and sear on all sides until golden brown, about 6-8 minutes.
4
Cook the Pork Thoroughly
Reduce the heat to medium-low and cover the skillet. Cook for an additional 10-15 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C). Remove from skillet and let rest.
5
Sauté the Vegetables
In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and chopped shallot. Sauté until fragrant, about 1-2 minutes. Add the little gem lettuce and sauté until wilted, about 3-4 minutes.
6
Serve
Slice the pork tenderloin and serve it over the sautéed little gem lettuce. Drizzle with any remaining pan juices.
