Recipe Notes

• If you don't like rosemary, use your favorite herb.

• Slice the pork for delicious pork sandwiches.

Here's how to make it:

1. Season the tenderloins all over with salt and pepper. Heat the olive oil in a skillet. Add the pork and cook until well browned on all sides. Put the meat into a large casserole dish.
2. In a bowl, whisk together the balsamic vinegar, brown sugar, garlic, onion and rosemary. Pour the mixture into the skillet. Cook, stirring, about 2 to 3 minutes or until reduced by half and onion has softened. Pour the glaze over the pork.
3. Bake the pork in a preheated 375-degree F oven for about 20 to 30 minutes, basting occasionally. Pork is done when it reaches 145 degrees F. Remove the pork and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing. Serve with accumulated pan drippings.
