Prepare the Pork
Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F). Pat the pork tenderloin dry with paper towels. Season it generously with salt and black pepper.

In a large oven-safe skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the pork tenderloin and sear on all sides until browned, about 2-3 minutes per side.

Roast the Pork
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and roast the pork for about 25-30 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 65°C (145°F). Remove from the oven and let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
