Balsamic-Glazed Pork Tenderloin

Submitted by Sageca

"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."

This was amazing! I followed the recipe to the T. I do agree with Chef #646279 it was more a sauce texture, but it was so dippable and finger licking! This will definitely be made again. Thanks for a very good main course for our dinner tonight!
