Line a broiler pan with aluminum foil and place pork on pan, rub all over with oil.
4
Rub the spice mixture all over the pork, coating it evenly.

Broil, turning occasionally, about 15-20 minutes (thermometer will read 150F).
6
Meanwhile, make the avocado-pineapple salsa by draining the juice from the pineapple into a small bowl.
7
Finely chop pineapple and add to the bowl of juice along with the scallions and avocado. Season with a little salt and pepper, toss gently to combine.

When pork is finished, slice thinly and serve with the salsa.
