Crock pot balsamic garlic pork tenderloin

Crock Pot Balsamic Garlic Pork Tenderloin is a savory dish that combines the rich flavors of balsamic vinegar, garlic, and tender pork fillet. This recipe is perfect for a hearty and flavorful meal without much hassle, as your slow cooker does most of the work. With just a few ingredients and minimal preparation, you can enjoy a delicious and tender pork tenderloin that pairs well with a variety of sides.

Ingredients:

1 tbsp olive oil
14g
4 garlic cloves
12g
2 lb pork fillet
910g
1/2 cup vinegar
130g
1 tbsp worcestershire sauce
16g
2 tbsp soy sauce
33g
1/2 tsp salt
3g
1/2 tsp red pepper (spice)
1/6g

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Pork: Rinse the pork fillet under cold water and pat it dry with paper towels. Trim any excess fat if needed.
2. Sear the Pork: In a large skillet, heat 1 tbsp of olive oil over medium-high heat. When the oil is hot but not smoking, add the pork fillet. Sear the fillet on all sides until it is browned, about 2-3 minutes per side. This step helps to lock in the juices and adds flavor.
3. Prepare the Garlic: While the pork is searing, mince the garlic cloves finely.
4. Prepare the Sauce: In a small bowl, combine the balsamic vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce, minced garlic, salt, and crushed red pepper flakes. Whisk together until well mixed.
5. Transfer to Crock Pot: Place the seared pork fillet into the crock pot. Pour the balsamic garlic sauce over the pork, ensuring that the fillet is evenly coated.
6. Cook: Cover the crock pot with its lid. Cook on low heat for 6-8 hours or on high heat for 3-4 hours. The pork should be tender and easily shredded with a fork.
7. Serve: Once cooked, remove the tenderloin from the crock pot and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing or shredding. Spoon some of the sauce from the crock pot over the pork for added flavor.
8. Optional Garnish: For an added touch, sprinkle some freshly chopped parsley or cilantro over the top before serving.

Tips:

- For even more flavor, you can marinate the pork fillet in the balsamic mixture for a few hours or overnight before placing it in the crock pot.

- Make sure to sear the pork tenderloin on all sides in a skillet before adding it to the crock pot. This step locks in the juices and adds a delicious crust to the meat.

- Use fresh garlic cloves for the best flavor. If you prefer a milder garlic taste, you can slightly sauté the garlic in olive oil before adding it to the crock pot.

- If you like your sauce a bit thicker, you can remove the pork tenderloin once it is cooked and let the sauce reduce by continuing to cook it in the crock pot on a high setting for about 20-30 minutes.

- Serve the pork tenderloin with mashed potatoes, rice, or roasted vegetables to complete your meal.

This Crock Pot Balsamic Garlic Pork Tenderloin is a simple yet flavorful dish that is perfect for both weeknight dinners and special occasions. The slow cooking process ensures that the pork is incredibly tender, while the combination of balsamic vinegar, garlic, and spices creates a deliciously rich and tangy sauce. With minimal effort and just a few ingredients, you'll have a satisfying and delicious meal that will impress your family and friends.
