Combine chili powder, granulated garlic, cumin, coriander and white pepper; coat the tenderloin with the spice mixture. Coating should be about 1/8 inch thick. Roast for 15-20 minutes until medium. Allow meat to cool.

Meanwhile, combine pinon nuts, garlic, basil, lemon juice, anchovies and Parmesan in a food processor. Continue to process while adding the olive oil in a slow drizzle. Use a feed tube if possible. If the mixture is too thick, add a bit of warm water or lemon juice.

Cut the lettuce across the leaves as for a standard Caesar salad, and toss it with the dressing. Put on plates, top with shredded cheese and place 3 to 4 strips of meat per serving atop the salad. Garnish with tortilla chips, quartered tomatoes, the red pepper strips and a dollop of dressing on each meat strip.
