    Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 lb. store-bought pizza dough fresh, or thawed if frozen
  • 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • Coarse salt and ground pepper
  • 2 pork tenderloins (10 to 12 ounces each)
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 2 tablespoons cider vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 1 can (15 ounces) black-eyed peas drained and rinsed
  • 1 package (10 ounces) frozen corn kernels thawed
  • 1 red bell pepper (ribs and seeds removed) finely diced
  • 2 scallions thinly sliced
  • Coarse salt and ground pepper

    Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees. In a small bowl, combine paprika, thyme, cayenne, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper; set spice mixture aside.
  2. Place pork on a rimmed baking sheet; rub with oil. Sprinkle all over with spice mixture, patting in gently. Roast until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the thickest part of meat registers 150 degrees. 20 to 25 minutes; let cool.
