Ingredients

• 2 pieces (about 1 pound each) Pork tenderloin
• 3 tablespoons Olive oil
• 0.25 cup Soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons Balsamic vinegar
• 2 tablespoons Honey
• 4 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
• 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
• 1 teaspoon Paprika
• 1 teaspoon Fresh rosemary, chopped
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Begin by patting the pork tenderloins dry using paper towels. Trim any excess fat or silver skin if necessary.

Step 2

In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the olive oil, soy sauce, balsamic vinegar, honey, minced garlic, Dijon mustard, paprika, rosemary, salt, and black pepper to create the marinade.

Step 3

Place the pork tenderloins in a resealable plastic bag or a shallow baking dish. Pour the marinade over the meat, ensuring it is well-coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish with plastic wrap, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or up to overnight for best results.

Step 4

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and place a wire rack on top to ensure even cooking.

Step 5

Remove the pork tenderloins from the marinade, letting the excess drip off. Reserve the leftover marinade for basting.

Step 6

Heat a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the pork tenderloins for 2-3 minutes on each side until a golden-brown crust forms.

Step 7

Transfer the seared pork to the prepared baking sheet and roast in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C) in the thickest part of the meat.

Step 8

While the pork is roasting, pour the reserved marinade into a small saucepan. Bring it to a boil over medium heat and let it simmer for 5 minutes to create a glaze.

Step 9

Once the pork is cooked, remove it from the oven and let it rest for 5-10 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute.

Step 10

Slice the pork tenderloin into medallions and drizzle the prepared glaze over the top. Serve immediately with your favorite sides.
