-
Sprinkle pork with seasonings. Place an oven safe pan (I like cast iron for this) on med/high heat. Add enough olive oil to pan that the bottom is lightly coated
-
When oil is hot add pork, searing until brown on all sides (usually 3-4 minutes a side) If you are using tenderloin instead of blade steaks you'll turn 1/4 turns so all sides are browned.
-
Once browned place pan on the lower rack of the oven (below potatoes).
-
If you used 1" steaks, cook for about 12 minutes, if you used a tenderloin, cook for 15-16 more minutes or until tenderloin has a SLIGHTLY pink center. Potatoes should be done right around the time the pork is done.
-
Remove from oven, allow pork to rest for five minutes
-
Slice pork, drizzle with drippings from pan, serve with potatoes and salsa.
