Rep Power: 1 | Description: moist pork tenderloin with a good balsamic reduction!
| | Other: | Ingredients: | | Time: prep time is about 15 mins while cooking time is about 30-45 Difficulty: medium Serving Size: 2 | - Pork Tenderloin:
- 1 1.5 lb pork tenderloin.
- 4 tblsp good balsamic vinegar
- 4 tblsp good olive oil.
- 4-8 thinly sliced garlic cloves depending on size.

- 8-10 fresh basil leaves, finely chopped.
- My balsamic reduction recipe:
- 1/4 cup good balsamic vinegar
- 3 tsp pomegranate wine vinegar
- tsp honey
- 2tsp good chianti
| | Preparation: | - preheat oven to 400 degrees.
- wash and trim clear fatty layer off pork tenderloin with a verrry sharp thin knife.
| | Instructions: | - make the balsamic reduction ahead of time, because it takes about 30 mins to reduce.
- 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.
- place tenderloin in a glass roasting pan, drizzle all of the balsamic vinegar over the top of the loin, and rub into the meat.
- pour all of the olive oil over the loin and rub into the meat.
- place rosemary, basil, salt, and pepper in a small bowl and mix well.
- make small slices in top of loin with a paring knife, and insert all of garlic.
- cover with S&P and herb mixture, then drizzle just a tiny bit of olive oil over the loin.
- bake uncovered for about 35-40 mins, it will be medium rare to medium.
- 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.
- Goes great with a fresh spinach salad, and fresh green beans. i also like to serve it with garlic bread!
