Time 1h

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 1/2 pounds pork tenderloin
1 teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons garlic powder
1/2 cup frozen or fresh blueberries
2 teaspoons minced garlic
1 tablespoon honey
1/2 cup balsamic vinegar

Steps:

  • Pre-heat oven to 375° F. Line baking sheet with aluminum foil.
  • Mix together pepper, salt and garlic powder in a small bowl or ramekin. Rub mixture all over the pork tenderloin.
  • Place tenderloin on the baking sheet and onto the center rack of the oven. Be sure to have baking sheet in the center of the rack. Allow to bake for 20-30 minutes. Oven temperatures may vary, so use an internal thermometer to check for doneness. If it reads 140° F-150° F it is done. If you do not have an internal thermometer, the center of the tenderloin when cooked will be slightly pink, but will not look raw!
  • Place blueberries in a medium sauce pan on med-high heat. Using a wooden spoon or potato masher, begin breaking the blueberries while cooking. Add garlic and honey. Blueberries will begin to boil and sauce will begin to form. Stir in balsamic vinegar. Bring sauce to a boil and allow to reduce. Reduction time is about 12-15 minutes.
  • Once tenderloin is done baking, remove from oven and allow to sit for 10 minutes before slicing. Remove sauce from stove heat once it has reduced and become slightly thick, it should flow almost like the consistency of honey off of a spoon.
  • Slice tenderloin into medallions, about 3/4 to 1 inch thick. Place 4 medallions (1 serving) onto dish and spoon sauce over medallions. Serve with any veggie or starch and enjoy! Also great with a white wine.

Time 1h15m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 11

½ cup brown sugar
½ cup water
¼ cup balsamic vinegar
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon cornstarch
2 cloves garlic, crushed
1 ½ teaspoons ground sage
¾ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon pepper
2 (1 1/2 pound) pork tenderloins
1 tablespoon olive oil, or as needed

Steps:

  • Combine brown sugar, water, balsamic vinegar, soy sauce, and cornstarch in a small saucepan over medium heat. Cook, stirring constantly, until mixture thickens, 4 to 6 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking sheet.
  • Combine garlic, sage, salt, and pepper in a small bowl. Rub garlic mixture over pork tenderloins.

  • Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Turn pork, brush again with glaze, and continue cooking until pork is slightly pink in the center, about 20 minutes more, or until desired doneness. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).
  • Remove tenderloin to a platter. Allow to rest for 10 minutes. Drizzle a little extra glaze over the top. Carve and serve with remaining glaze on the side.
