Report
Enjoy this easy, juicy, 30-minute Island Glazed Pork Tenderloin with a sweet and spicy island-inspired glaze! The flavors of cinnamon, cumin, chili powder, garlic, brown sugar, and a little bit of heat all come together in one delightfully delicious glaze over tender, melt-in-your-mouth pork tenderloin.

Ingredients
- 1 - 1 ½ pounds pork tenderloin (two small or one medium-large tenderloin)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
Rub
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
Glaze
- ¾ cup brown sugar
- 2 teaspoons minced garlic
- 1 tablespoon Sriracha sauce (see note), OR hot sauce
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Drizzle an oven-safe pan or skillet (such as a cast-iron skillet) with the olive oil and preheat on the stove over medium-high heat til the oil is hot. (See notes for alternative cooking option)
- Whisk together all rub ingredients. Sprinkle the rub mixture all over the tenderloin and use your fingers to massage into the meat.
- Place tenderloin in skillet and allow to brown for 3-4 minutes, turning the meat throughout to sear on all sides.
- Mix the glaze ingredients together and spread mixture over the tenderloin. Transfer to preheated oven and bake for about 20 minutes until cooked through.
- Cut tenderloin into 1-inch thick slices. Use a spoon to drizzle the glaze from the pan all over the tenderloin just before serving.
Notes
- Sriracha is an Asian hot chili sauce that can be found in the Asian section of most grocery stores. I definitely recommend the sriracha over hot sauce unless you're in a pinch.
- If you don't have an oven-safe skillet, you can sear the tenderloin in a regular skillet, then transfer the tenderloin to a greased, rimmed baking pan or casserole dish for the baking portion.
