Maple Balsamic Pork Tenderloin
Ingredients:
2 tbsp healthy cooking fat or oil of your choice
2 pork tenderloins, about 450g (16oz) each
For the marinade/sauce
2 dry shallots, minced
2 large garlic cloves, minced
1 tbsp finely chopped fresh thyme
1/2 cup pure maple syrup
1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
3 tbsp Dijon mustard
2 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
1 tsp salt, I use Himalayan salt
1/2 tsp ground black pepper
1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
Directions:
Make the marinade: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together maple syrup, balsamic vinegar, Dijon mustard, olive oil, minced shallots, garlic, thyme, salt, pepper, and cayenne until well combined.
Marinate the pork: Place pork tenderloins in a baking dish. Pour marinade over pork, turning to coat evenly. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight (minimum 6 hours).
Prep for cooking: Remove pork from refrigerator 30 minutes before cooking. Preheat oven to 375°F. Remove pork from the marinade, wiping down excess. Reserve the marinade.
Sear the pork: Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Sear tenderloins 2 minutes per side until golden brown.
Add marinade: Pour reserved marinade into skillet. Simmer 1 minute, spooning sauce over pork.
Roast: Cover with foil and transfer to oven; roast for 15 minutes. Remove foil, baste with pan juices, and roast uncovered 5 more minutes until internal temperature reaches 145°F.
Rest and serve: Remove from oven, tent with foil, and rest 5 minutes. Slice into medallions and serve with pan sauce.
