Ingredients

• 1 lb pork tenderloin
• 2 tbsp olive oil
• 3 cloves minced garlic
• 1 tsp dried rosemary
• 1 tsp dried thyme
• 1 tsp dried oregano
• 1 tsp salt
• 0.5 tsp ground black pepper
• 2 cups cherry tomatoes
• 2 tbsp balsamic vinegar
• 2 tbsp fresh basil leaves
• 1 tbsp unsalted butter

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

Step 2

Pat the pork tenderloin dry with paper towels and set aside.

Step 3

In a small bowl, mix together the olive oil, minced garlic, dried rosemary, thyme, oregano, salt, and black pepper to create a herb rub.

Step 4

Using your hands, rub the herb mixture evenly over the entire surface of the pork tenderloin.

Step 5

Heat a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat and add 1 tablespoon of olive oil.

Step 6

Sear the pork tenderloin in the skillet for 2-3 minutes per side, until golden brown all over.

Step 7

Add the cherry tomatoes and balsamic vinegar to the skillet around the pork tenderloin.

Step 8

Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and roast for 15-20 minutes, or until the pork reaches an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).

Step 9

Carefully remove the skillet from the oven and place the pork tenderloin on a cutting board. Let it rest for 5 minutes to retain its juices.

Step 10

Meanwhile, place the skillet with the tomatoes back over medium heat and stir in the butter, letting it melt into the sauce.

Step 11

Slice the pork tenderloin into medallions and serve with the roasted cherry tomatoes and sauce spooned over the top.

Step 12

Garnish with freshly chopped basil leaves and enjoy!
