When living in Europe, I missed classic Southwestern flavors. Using what I had, I made spicy pork tenderloin and it's been a staple ever since. &mdash;John Cox, Seguin, Texas

Delicious recipe. I did rub the pork with a little EVOO and some cumin, garlic and pepper and let it sit for about three hours. Then I added only half a packet of the taco seasoning. I also cooked for an extra 10 minutes. This was so good. it makes a lot, so we have an extra tenderloin for leftovers!!

My family found this to be a very tasty dish, and have asked me to make it again.   I thought it was a pretty easy recipe with only four ingredients.  However, I did encounter a problem in that it simply was NOT done in the recommended 20-25 minutes; it had only gotten to 130 degrees.   I put it back in the oven for another 10 minutes, then let it stand for the 10 minutes under foil.   We still weren't satisfied about it being done since it looked pinkish, so we microwaved the slices after cutting.

Good flavor but mine also was not done in the recommended time. It took an additional 15 minutes to cook it to 145 degrees. I would suggest cooking it at 425 for 25-30 minutes.

I usually use a convection oven which would explain difference in cooking time.  Thanks for the feed-back.
