BALSAMIC GLAZED PORK WITH CARAMELIZED ONIONS

Steps:

• *Note-You could use chopped fresh garlic in place of the dried powder, but I wouldn't add it until the the last ten minutes or so.
• I'm thinking the garlic may burn if you add it at the beginning and would ruin the dish.
• Combine all dry spice ingredients.
• Sprinkle on both sides of the ribs, rub into meat surface.
• Let stand at room temperature for 1/2 hour.
• In a large skillet, add the olive oil and 2 tablespoons of the butter over medium-high heat.
• When the butter has melted, add the ribs.
• Cook for approximately 5 minutes, and then turn over and sear the other side.
• You want to get a nice crust from the spices on each side.
• Add the chopped onion.
• Cook for approximately five more minutes, stirring the onions until they become tender and are starting to brown.
• Pour the balsamic vinegar over everything in the skillet.
• Turn the heat down to medium-low and cover the skillet.
• Cook for approximately 10-15 minutes more, depending on the thickness of the meat.
• Occasionally stir the onions and turn the meat.
• You want to really caramelize the onions, until they become slightly charred.
• They take on a lovely, sweet and smoky flavor.
• Test your meat to ensure that it's cooked through by inserting a meat thermometer in the center.
• Temperature should be 170 degrees.
• Remove the pork and onions to a platter.
• Turn the heat up to medium-high.
• Add the wine to the skillet.

PORK TENDERLOIN WITH BALSAMIC ONIONS

Steps:

• Place a rimmed baking sheet on the middle oven rack and preheat to 450˚ F. Toss the brussels sprouts and potatoes with 1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil and 2 smashed garlic cloves in a large bowl; season with salt and pepper. Spread out on the hot baking sheet and roast until tender and browned, 25 to 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, season the pork all over with salt and pepper, then rub with the rosemary and grated garlic. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the pork and cook, turning, until browned all over, about 6 minutes. Transfer the pork to a small baking sheet (reserve the skillet) and roast in the oven until cooked through, 10 to 12 minutes. Remove to a cutting board. Let rest 5 minutes, then slice against the grain.
• Meanwhile, add the remaining 1/2 tablespoon olive oil to the reserved skillet; heat over medium-high heat. Add the red onions and a big pinch of salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and lightly browned, about 6 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium and add the balsamic vinegar, 1/2 cup water and the sugar. Simmer, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens, 8 to 10 minutes; season with salt and pepper.
• Divide the pork, onions and roasted vegetables among plates. Sprinkle with the parsley.

BALSAMIC ONIONS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
• Cut the onions in half and slice 1/4 inch thick. Place on a baking sheet and toss with 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar, the olive oil, salt, and pepper. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, until the onions are tender. Remove from the oven, toss with 2 more tablespoons balsamic vinegar.

ROASTED CARAMELIZED BALSAMIC ONIONS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450*F.
• Cut the onions into halves at the equators.
• Remove the skin and any tough outer layers.
• Do not cut off the root and stem ends and be careful not to score the layers you don't remove: uncut, the outer layer will better hold the onion together as it roasts.
• Place the onion halves cut side down in a 9-inch square baking pan.
• Melt the butter in a saucepan and stir in the vinegar, thyme, salt, and pepper.
• Pour over the onions.
• Bake for about 20 minutes, and then turn the onions over and baste them with the pan juices.
• Bake for another 20 to 25 minutes, until easily pierced with a paring knife and the inner rings have begun to swell and rise up.
• Serve immediately or at room temperature.
• Enjoy!

BROWN SUGAR AND BALSAMIC GLAZED PORK TENDERLOIN

Steps:

• Combine brown sugar, water, balsamic vinegar, soy sauce, and cornstarch in a small saucepan over medium heat. Cook, stirring constantly, until mixture thickens, 4 to 6 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking sheet.
• Combine garlic, sage, salt, and pepper in a small bowl. Rub garlic mixture over pork tenderloins.
• Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Arrange tenderloins in the skillet and brown evenly, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Transfer pork to the prepared baking sheet and brush with the balsamic glaze.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Turn pork, brush again with glaze, and continue cooking until pork is slightly pink in the center, about 20 minutes more, or until desired doneness. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).
• Remove tenderloin to a platter. Allow to rest for 10 minutes. Drizzle a little extra glaze over the top. Carve and serve with remaining glaze on the side.
