PAN-ROASTED PORK TENDERLOIN WITH ANCHO HONEY GLAZE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Whisk together the honey, 2 tablespoons ancho, the mustard and chile de arbol in a small bowl until smooth then season with salt and pepper. Set aside. (If you can make this glaze at least 30 minutes before using, it will be more flavorful.)
• Remove the pork from the refrigerator 30 minutes before cooking. Season the pork on both sides with salt, pepper and ancho powder. Heat a few tablespoons of oil in a large ovenproof skillet over high heat until it shimmers. Add the pork and cook on all sides until golden brown and a crust has formed, about 12 minutes total. Brush both sides with some of the glaze.
• Transfer the skillet to the oven and roast until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center registers 140 degrees F, about 12 minutes.
• Brush the top with the glaze several times while roasting. Remove to a cutting board and brush the top of the pork with more glaze. Let rest for 10 minutes then cut into thick slices. Garnish with the chives and scallions and serve.
