  3. Heat oil in a nonstick pan over medium heat. Add pork, spiced side down. While it’s cooking, sprinkle the tops with the remaining spice mix.

  5. Remove tenderloins from pan and keep warm.
  6. Add butter to the pan and whisk up all the browned spices and bits. Turn heat up to medium-high. Add chicken broth and continue whisking until sauce reduces by about half.
