1-1 1/2 pounds pork tenderloin

4-5 cloves garlic

1 tsp. crushed rosemary

1 tsp. kosher salt

1/4 tsp. black pepper

1 1/2 teaspoons balsamic vinegar

2 tsp. olive oil

Combine garlic, rosemary, salt, and pepper. Massage the seasonings all over the pork loin. Whisk together the balsamic vinegar and olive oil. Place the seasoned pork tenderloin in a ziplock bag and add the oil and vinegar combination. Seal the bag and refrigerate for 4-10 hours.

For cooking: Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Remove the pork from the bag and place the tenderloin on a foil-lined baking dish. Place in the preheated oven and bake until internal temperature of the roast reaches 150-160 degrees, about 30-45 minutes.

Let stand for 5 minutes and then slice into 1/2 inch pieces. Spoon pan juices over before serving.
