Ingredients:
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 3/4 teaspoon ground coriander
- 1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons light brown sugar
- 2/3 cup balsamic vinegar
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 2 pork tenderloins (about 1 pound each)
- 4 rolls (for serving)
- Red onion, thinly sliced (for garnish)
Instructions:
| Step | Description |
|---|---|
| 1 | Preheat the oven to 450°F (230°C). |
| 2 | Lightly coat a large roasting pan with olive oil to prevent sticking. |
| 3 | In a small bowl, mix the dried oregano, ground coriander, kosher salt, and black pepper. Rub this flavorful mixture generously onto the pork tenderloins. |
| 4 | Place the seasoned pork tenderloins in the prepared roasting pan, ensuring they are evenly spaced. |
| 5 | In a saucepan, combine the balsamic vinegar and light brown sugar. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat, then reduce the heat and simmer until it reduces to about 1/2 cup, creating a thick and glossy glaze. |
| 6 | Roast the pork tenderloins in the preheated oven for 5 minutes. |
| 7 | After 5 minutes, brush the pork with the prepared balsamic glaze, ensuring an even coating. |
| 8 | Return the pork to the oven and continue to roast for another 5 minutes. |
| 9 | Remove the pork from the oven and generously brush it again with the balsamic glaze. |
| 10 | Continue roasting the pork until its internal temperature reaches 155°F (68°C), typically requiring additional time depending on the thickness of the tenderloins. |
| 11 | Once cooked to perfection, remove the pork from the oven and allow it to rest for at least 10 minutes. This resting period allows the juices to redistribute, ensuring a moist and tender texture. |
| 12 | After resting, slice the pork tenderloins thinly, approximately 1/4 inch thick slices, for easy serving. |
| 13 | To assemble the sandwiches, split the rolls and spread each with a layer of Dijon mustard. |
| 14 | Arrange the sliced pork on the rolls, topping each with thin slices of red onion for an extra kick of flavor. |
| 15 | Serve your delicious Balsamic Glazed Pork Sandwiches immediately, and enjoy the burst of savory flavors with every bite. |
