    Balsamic and olive oil pork tenderloin.

    Description: moist pork tenderloin with a good balsamic reduction!
    Serving Size: 2
    Time: prep time is about 15 mins while cooking time is about 30-45
    Difficulty: medium

    Ingredients:
    1. Pork Tenderloin:
    2. 1 1.5 lb pork tenderloin.
    3. 4 tblsp good balsamic vinegar
    4. 4 tblsp good olive oil.

    6. tsp each of fresh ground sea salt and black pepper.

    8. 8-10 fresh basil leaves, finely chopped.
    9. My balsamic reduction recipe:
    10. 1/4 cup good balsamic vinegar
    11. 3 tsp pomegranate wine vinegar
    12. tsp honey
    13. 2tsp good chianti
    Preparation:
    1. preheat oven to 400 degrees.
    2. wash and trim clear fatty layer off pork tenderloin with a verrry sharp thin knife.
    Instructions:
    1. make the balsamic reduction ahead of time, because it takes about 30 mins to reduce.
    2. place all ingredients from reduction recipe list in a small sauce pan, place on med-low heat and cook stirring occasionally for 30-45 mins, remove from heat. will thicken as it cools.
    3. place tenderloin in a glass roasting pan, drizzle all of the balsamic vinegar over the top of the loin, and rub into the meat.
    4. pour all of the olive oil over the loin and rub into the meat.
    5. place rosemary, basil, salt, and pepper in a small bowl and mix well.
    6. make small slices in top of loin with a paring knife, and insert all of garlic.
    7. cover with S&P and herb mixture, then drizzle just a tiny bit of olive oil over the loin.
    8. bake uncovered for about 35-40 mins, it will be medium rare to medium.
    9. let rest on a cutting board for about 5-8 mins then slice into 1/2 inch medallions, after placing on serving plate/dish drizzle the reduction over the meat.
    10. Goes great with a fresh spinach salad, and fresh green beans. i also like to serve it with garlic bread!

    I don't like to use the pork dishes because i have listen different debate on the use of the pork. There is also complexity from the religious point view.
