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.

BALSAMIC-GLAZED PORK TENDERLOIN



Balsamic-Glazed Pork Tenderloin image

I found this recipe in a site promoting the other white meat. Balsamic vinegar combines with a touch of brown sugar to make a delectable glaze for this pork.. A quick browning gives the pork color and seals in the juices for a more tender dish. This recipe is simple and very tasty both hot or cold.I made 2 so I can have leftovers. Add baby potatoes to your pan and you will get these great roasted potatoes.
