How to Make Adobo Rubbed Pork Tenderloin

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. In a small bowl, combine all the adobo rub ingredients: 2 tablespoons soy sauce, 1 tablespoon brown sugar, 1 tablespoon rice vinegar, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 1 teaspoon onion powder, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional).
  3. Pat the pork tenderloin dry with paper towels. This helps the rub adhere better.
  4. Generously rub the adobo mixture all over the pork tenderloin, ensuring it's fully coated.
  5. Place the seasoned pork tenderloin in a roasting pan or oven-safe dish.
  6. Roast for 15-20 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C). Use a meat thermometer for accuracy.
  7. Let the pork rest for 5 minutes before slicing and serving. This allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more tender and flavorful pork tenderloin.
  8. Serve and enjoy! Consider serving with rice and your favorite vegetables.
