Steps:
- Whisk balsamic vinegar, garlic, rosemary, honey, salt, and pepper together in a bowl. Place pork in a resealable plastic bag and pour balsamic mixture on top to coat. Squeeze out excess air, and seal the bag. Place the bag in a container to avoid leaks, and marinate in the refrigerator 6 to 8 hours.
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
- Remove pork from the marinade and shake off excess. Place pork in a roasting pan or baking dish. Reserve marinade.
- Roast pork in the preheated oven until slightly pink in the center, about 25 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C). Remove pork from the oven, place on a cutting board, and cover loosely with aluminum foil. Let rest for 10-20 minutes.
- While pork is resting, pour marinade into a small saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for 10 minutes. Serve with the roasted tenderloin.

BALSAMIC-GLAZED PORK TENDERLOIN
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.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
- Trim any excess fat, and rinse pork under cold water, set on paper towels and pat dry.
- Season all sides with salt and pepper to your own taste.
- Heat oil in large frying pan over medium-high heat. Get the pan nice and hot!
- Place pork into pan, and brown/sear on all sides, don't forget the ends. About 2-3 minutes per sides, if your pan is very hot. Check so you don't burn it or under sear it.
- Remove pork from pan and set on a plate.
- Turn down heat to medium, and add the balsamic vinegar.
- Using a plastic spatula, scrape any bits off of the bottom of the pan, that's the good stuff!
- Stir in dark brown sugar (can sub regular brown sugar, but dark is better), using spatula and keep scraping the bottom and stirring the sauce constantly. Don't worry, it's very easy.
- Do this for about 2-3 minutes til sauce has reduced and is thickened a little. Just don't do it too long, because it still has to bake and you don't want to end up with burnt tar to roof your house with!
- Turn heat off.
- Place pork back into the skillet and turn several (4-5) times to coat/glaze all sides, ending with it bottom-side up.
- Sprinkle bottom side evenly with 1/4 teaspoons (half) the thyme, using your fingers crushing it as you sprinkle.
- Sprinkle with half the garlic powder, (1/4 teaspoons also).
- Place pork, newly seasoned-side down into (greased) shallow roasting or baking dish.
- Now season the top the same way.
- Pour remaining glaze over pork.
- Let rest 10 minutes, and keep re-glazing with the sauce in the pan. (Just tilt the pan and spoon it over.).
- Place in oven and roast for 30-35 minutes. (35 if slightly larger).
- Remove from oven, loosely cover with foil, and let rest for 10-15 minutes.
- This gives you time to heat up that corn or green beans!
- Remove pork from baking dish to platter, slice and plate.
- Stir pan juices and pour over slices. (Don't scrape the bottom or any super thick parts, though, just mostly the juices).
- And serve! :).
- *Tip: If wanting to serve roasted potato wedges with this, bake them right along with the roast (seperate dish!) for 45 minutes uncovered. It will all get done at the same time with the resting time of the pork! HTH! :).
Tips:
- Choose a good quality pork tenderloin: Look for a tenderloin that is firm and pinkish in color. Avoid any tenderloins that are bruised or have a lot of fat.
- Trim the pork tenderloin: Remove any excess fat or silver skin from the tenderloin before cooking. This will help the tenderloin to cook evenly.
- Marinate the pork tenderloin: Marinating the tenderloin in a mixture of balsamic vinegar, olive oil, and herbs will help to tenderize the meat and add flavor.
- Sear the pork tenderloin: Sear the tenderloin in a hot skillet before roasting it. This will help to create a crispy crust and lock in the juices.
- Roast the pork tenderloin: Roast the tenderloin in a preheated oven until it reaches an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit. This will ensure that the tenderloin is cooked through but still juicy.
- Let the pork tenderloin rest: Let the tenderloin rest for a few minutes before slicing and serving. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat.
Conclusion:
Creamy balsamic pork tenderloin is a delicious and elegant dish that is perfect for a special occasion. The tenderloin is marinated in a mixture of balsamic vinegar, olive oil, and herbs, then seared and roasted to perfection.
