Ingredients: 2 lbs pork tenderloin (usually 2 medium links of pork ); 2 tsp coconut or brown sugar; 2 tsp cumin; 1 tsp pink or sea salt; fresh ground black pepper (to taste ); 3-4 tbsp avocado oil (coconut or olive oil ); 4-6 tbsp balsamic vinegar

These two methods are by far my favorite ways of serving up this lean cut of meat. Oven roasted or slow cooker style, this Pork Tenderloin is so easy to cook and serve. Both make a great addition to any meal, any time.

Party Pork

I love this simple method of oven roasting the pork tenderloin because it makes such tender bites, great as leftovers or serves a crowd. Set out on a plater, finger food style, at your next get together with a few dipping sauces. Don't let the cook-time scare you, a little prep will make this a simple dinner.

Ingredients

2 lbs pork tenderloin usually 2 medium links of pork
2 tsp coconut or brown sugar
2 tsp cumin
1 tsp pink or sea salt
fresh ground black pepper to taste
3-4 tbsp avocado oil coconut or olive oil
4-6 tbsp balsamic vinegar

Instructions

Grease baking dish with 1 tbsp of oil
Trim pork of any significant fat pieces. Kitchen shears work well.
Rub 1 tsp of cumin and sugar on each piece of pork. Add salt and pepper.
Rub around 1 tbsp of oil on each cut of pork. A basting brush works well but so do your hands.
The pork can then go back in the fridge for up to over night or can go straight in the oven to cook.
When ready to cook, pre-heat oven to 350 degrees.
Cook for 15 minutes.
Remove pork from oven and use basting brush or drizzle 2-4 tablespoons of balsamic over the top. Return to oven for 15 minutes.
Remove and baste with juices in the pan, and set back for additional 15 min.
Make sure to set timers each time, easy to over cook. If you like a pink center cut time by 5 minutes.
Allow meat to rest for 10 minutes before slicing.

Notes

I often prep this pork in advance and store in a glass baking dish with a lid until ready to cook. Makes great leftovers, served warm or cold and dipped in mustard of choice. Serve with a big easy salad for dinner or set out on a pretty platter at a party along with a fruit and veggie tray.
