Pork Tenderloins with Balsamic-Raisin Sauce image

Very little prep for this delicious dish, but the raisins do have to soak in wine for 8 hours to plump up full of flavour. Just put them in the wine in the morning as you're leaving for work.

I'm not a big fan of pork, but this recipe changed my mind. The pork was tender and juicy, and the sauce was amazing.

The pork was a little dry, but the sauce was delicious. I would recommend cooking the pork for a shorter amount of time.

This dish was easy to make and very flavorful. I used a whole grain mustard instead of Dijon and it turned out great.

I followed the recipe exactly and the pork tenderloin turned out perfectly. The sauce was a little too sweet for my taste, but that's easily adjustable.
