I found this recipe in a site promoting the other white meat. Balsamic vinegar combines with a touch of brown sugar to make a delectable glaze for this pork.. A quick browning gives the pork color and seals in the juices for a more tender dish. This recipe is simple and very tasty both hot or cold.I made 2 so I can have leftovers. Add baby potatoes to your pan and you will get these great roasted potatoes.
Ingredients:
1 1/2 lbs pork tenderloin
1 teaspoon olive oil
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/3 cup balsamic vinegar
1/2 teaspoon crushed garlic
2 tablespoons firmly packed brown sugar
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 375°F.
2. Rinse pork under cool running water. Trim excess fat. Season with salt and pepper.
3. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat; place pork in skillet. Sear each side to brown entire surface. Remove meat from pan; set aside on a warm plate.
4. Add vinegar to skillet, stirring to scrape any cooked bits of meat from skillet. Reduce heat to medium; stir in brown sugar and garlic; mix wel and simmer a few minutes to make a glaze. Return tenderloin to skillet; spoon glaze over meat.
5. Place pork in a small roasting pan. Roast for 30 minutes. Remove pork from oven; allow to rest for 5 minutes before slicing. Drizzle any pan juices over top.
