Ingredients

  • 4 -5 garlic cloves, finely minced
  • 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
  • 2 1/2 teaspoons coarse salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon fresh ground pepper
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 pork tenderloin (about 1 1/4 pounds each)
  • 2 tablespoons canola oil (if preparing in oven)

Method

  • Grill preparation:
  • Sear the tenderloins on all sides, then grill for about 20-30 minutes, rotating every 10 minutes, until the internal temperature is 160 degrees. Try to let it rest before slicing.
  • Oven preparation:
  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
  • Heat canola oil in a large, heavy saute pan over medium-high heat. Working in batches if necessary, add pork, and brown all over, about 4 minutes.
  • Transfer pan to oven. Roast pork, turning occasionally, until the internal temperature is 160 degrees, about 20 minutes. Transfer pork to a cutting board, and try to let it rest 10 minutes before slicing.
