Pork Tenderloin Medallions and Balsamic Reduction

I made this recipe yesterday for dinner and we loved it. It was easy. The hardest part was waiting for the reduction to reduce.

Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon minced shallots- I just used regular yellow onion.
  • 1 garlic clove, minced
  • 1 cup balsamic vinegar
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons sugar
  • 1 teaspoon chopped fresh rosemary- I used dried.
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • Cooking spray
  • 1 (1-pound) pork tenderloin, cut into 12 slices- I made this with chicken too and it was just as good.
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Preparation

  • 1. Heat oil in a small saucepan over medium-high heat. Add shallots and garlic; sauté 2 minutes. Add vinegar and next 3 ingredients; cook until reduced to 1/2 cup.
  • 2. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Coat pan with cooking spray. Sprinkle pork with salt and pepper. Place pork in pan; cook 2 minutes on each side. Add balsamic reduction; cook 1 minute, turning pork to coat.
