- 4 1⁄2 lbs pork tenderloin (4 tenderloins)
- 4 tablespoons balsamic vinegar

directions
- Preheat oven to 500 degrees F.
- Trim silver skin or connective tissue off tenderloins with a very sharp knife.
- Place tenderloins on a nonstick cookie sheet with rim. Coat tenderloins in a few tablespoons of balsamic vinegar, rubbing vinegar into the meat. Drizzle tenderloins with extra-virgin olive oil, just enough to coat. Cut small slits into meat and disperse slivered garlic into the holes.

- Let meat rest, transfer to a carving board, slice and serve.

Very, very good. I used chops instead of loin, and minced garlic (the kind that is sold in jars) instead of sliced garlic... it was a very easy dish to make, and clean up was a snap! I served with garlic mashed potatoes, bread, and steamed veggies. Even my picky 16-mo old loved it! Thanks for the post!

I AM A MARRIED MOTHER OF 3. COOKING IS A PASSION OF MINE. FINE FOOD MARKETS AND GROCERY STORES ARE MY "HANG OUTS". I LOVE THE FACT THAT THERE IS NO END IN LEARNING. I ENJOY THE WHOLE PROCESS OF COOKING, FROM FINDING A NEW RECIPE, GROCERY SHOPPING, EXPERIMENTING -- RIGHT TO THE DINNER TABLE. MY FAMILY APPRECIATES THE EFFORT I PUT INTO MEALS WHICH IS A WONDERFUL REWARD. ~NO PICKY EATERS HERE~ MY CHILDREN'S MINDS ARE OPEN TO ALL TYPES OF FOOD (WHEN IN MEXICO MY YOUNGEST SON ORDERED QUAIL AT A RESTAURANT AND LOVED IT).
