Caramelized Pork Tenderloin

 

Ingredients:

1 – (2 to 2.5lbs) of pork tenderloin

2 teaspoons of salt

½ teaspoon of paprika

½ teaspoon of Baklouti Fused Olive Oil

1 tablespoon of Portuguese Chiquitita EVOO

3 tablespoons of Lavender Dark Balsamic Vinegar

4 to 6 slices of bacon

1/3 cup of honey

2 tablespoons of mustard

 

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. 

Combine salt and paprika in a small bowl. Rub the entire mixture on the pork tenderloin and wrap with bacon stripes, secure sides with toothpicks. In a large skillet heat Baklouti Fused Oil and Chiquitita over medium high heat, place tenderloin in skillet and let the sides seal. 

In a small bowl combine the Balsamic Vinegar, honey and mustard and generously brush over the top of the tenderloin. Cook on skillet for 10-15 minutes while the Balsamic mixture gets caramelized. Transfer the tenderloin onto a foiled covered baking sheet, wrap with aluminum foil place in oven and bake for 15 minutes so juices can redistribute into the meat. Remove toothpicks, cut and serve.
