Ingredients

• 1 lb Pork tenderloin
• 0.25 cup Balsamic vinegar
• 0.25 cup Olive oil
• 2 tbsp Soy sauce
• 1 tbsp Honey
• 3 Garlic cloves, minced
• 1 tsp Fresh rosemary, chopped
• 0.5 tsp Dried oregano
• 0.5 tsp Salt
• 0.25 tsp Black pepper
• 1 tbsp Vegetable oil (for searing)

Directions

Step 1

In a medium bowl, whisk together the balsamic vinegar, olive oil, soy sauce, honey, minced garlic, rosemary, oregano, salt, and black pepper to make the marinade.

Step 2

Place the pork tenderloin in a large resealable plastic bag or shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the pork, ensuring it is well-coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish with plastic wrap.

Step 3

Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or ideally overnight, to allow the flavors to permeate the pork.

Step 4

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

Step 5

Remove the pork from the marinade and pat it dry with paper towels. Reserve the marinade for later use.

Step 6

Heat the vegetable oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, sear the pork tenderloin on all sides until browned, about 2-3 minutes per side.

Step 7

Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and roast the pork for 15-20 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C) when checked with a meat thermometer.

Step 8

While the pork is roasting, pour the reserved marinade into a small saucepan. Bring it to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat and simmer for 5-7 minutes, or until the mixture thickens slightly into a glaze.

Step 9

Remove the pork from the oven and let it rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing into medallions.

Step 10

Drizzle the balsamic glaze over the sliced pork and serve. Enjoy!
