Number Of Ingredients 7

½ cup balsamic vinegar
2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
2 teaspoons chopped fresh rosemary
2 teaspoons honey
fine sea salt to taste
freshly ground pepper to taste
1 (1 pound) pork tenderloin

Steps:

  • Whisk balsamic vinegar, garlic, rosemary, honey, salt, and pepper together in a bowl. Place pork in a resealable plastic bag and pour balsamic mixture on top to coat.

TENDER BALSAMIC MARINATED PORK TENDERLOIN



Tender Balsamic Marinated Pork Tenderloin image

My MIL was comming over for dinner and I came up with this recipe. I actually made two pork tenderloins, one marinaded in this, and another store bought tenderloin that was marinading in the package. This turned out far better! Cook time is an estimate.

Categories     Very Low Carbs

Time 1h5m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 -3 lbs pork tenderloin
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1/2 cup balsamic vinegar
3 -4 garlic cloves, minced
1 1/2 teaspoons crushed rosemary
1 1/2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
1/2 teaspoon pepper

Steps:

  • Add oil, vinegar, garlic, rosemary, worcestershire, and pepper in plastic bag.
  • Shake to mix.
  • Add pork tenderloin to bag and marinade 4-24 hours.
  • Cook on grill or oven.
  • Oven setting is 375, usually 25 minutes per pound.
  • Pork is done when thermometer reads between 140 and 160 degrees.
  • I take mine out of the oven when it's at 140 and then let it rest, because when meat rests, it continues to cook and will reach a higher internal temperature.

Tips:

  • To ensure the pork tenderloin cooks evenly, use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature. It should reach 145°F (63°C) for medium-rare, 155°F (68°C) for medium, or 165°F (74°C) for well done.
  • If you don't have balsamic vinegar, you can substitute red wine vinegar or apple cider vinegar.
  • For a thicker sauce, simmer it for a few minutes longer. You can also add a cornstarch slurry (equal parts cornstarch and water) to thicken it quickly.
  • Serve the pork tenderloin with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or rice.

Conclusion:

This creamy balsamic pork tenderloin is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal or a special occasion. The pork is tender and juicy, and the creamy balsamic sauce is rich and flavorful. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a meal that will impress your family and friends.
