For a deeper, smokier flavor, use smoked paprika in addition to the chipotle powder. Adjust the amount of chipotle powder to your preference for heat. Start with less and add more to taste. Marinating the pork overnight will result in an even more flavorful and tender dish. If you don't have a grill, you can also cook the pork tenderloin in a cast-iron skillet on the stovetop or bake it in the oven at 400°F (200°C) for about 20-25 minutes.
