🛒 Ingredients
- 1½ lbs pork loin or tenderloin, trimmed
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- ¼ cup balsamic vinegar
- 2 tbsp fresh rosemary, chopped (or 1 tbsp dried)
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- Salt and black pepper, to taste
👨🍳 Instructions
1️⃣ Preheat and Prep
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Pat pork dry with paper towels. Rub with olive oil, garlic, rosemary, salt, and black pepper.
2️⃣ Sear for Flavor
Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the pork on all sides until browned (about 6–8 minutes total).
3️⃣ Bake to Perfection
Transfer pork to a baking dish or oven-safe skillet. Drizzle with balsamic vinegar.
Roast for 20–25 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C).
4️⃣ Rest and Serve
Remove from the oven and let rest 5–10 minutes before slicing.
Serve drizzled with pan juices or extra balsamic glaze.
🔁 Variations & Expert Tips
- Use balsamic glaze: For a sweeter, thicker finish, reduce extra balsamic vinegar in a pan with a touch of honey.
- Don’t skip the rest: Resting the meat keeps it juicy and tender.
- Herb swap: Try thyme or oregano if you don’t have rosemary.
- Make it ahead: Marinate the pork in the rub overnight for even deeper flavor.
