Roasted Pork Tenderloin with Asian Dry Rub

lightly adapted from the Costco Connection magazine

2 tbsp light brown sugar, packed

2 tsp ground ginger

1/2 tsp cinnamon

1/2 tsp salt

1/2 tsp black pepper

1/4 tsp ground cloves

2 pork tenderloins (around 1 pound each, trimmed if needed)

Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Line a medium baking pan with foil.

Stir together brown sugar, ginger, cinnamon, salt, pepper and cloves in small bowl. Rub pork with mixture.

Place pork in prepared pan and roast for 15-18 minutes, or until the pork's internal temperature reaches 145 degrees. Remove from oven, cover loosely with foil and let stand for 3 minutes. Cut into slices. Serve with mashed potatoes, seasoned rice, green beans or roasted broccoli.

My youngest son said described this pork as "epic!" Our whole family loved it. This is easy, healthy and inexpensive.
