Instructions
- 1
Prepare the Rub
In a small bowl, combine ground coffee, brown sugar, smoked paprika, ground cumin, chili powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to form a spice rub.
- 2
Rub the Pork
Pat the pork tenderloin dry with paper towels. Rub the spice mixture all over the pork, ensuring it is evenly coated. Let it sit for at least 30 minutes to absorb the flavors.
- 3
Sear the Pork
In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the pork tenderloin and sear on all sides until browned, about 3-4 minutes per side.
- 4
Roast the Pork
Transfer the seared pork to a preheated oven at 400°F (200°C) and roast for 15-20 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C).
- 5
Rest and Slice
Remove the pork from the oven and let it rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing. Drizzle with lime juice and garnish with fresh cilantro before serving.
