Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pounds pork tenderloin
- 1.5 pounds baby potatoes
- 1 large yellow onion
- 3 cloves garlic cloves
- 1 cup low-sodium chicken broth
- 3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Rinse the pork tenderloin and pat it dry using paper towels. Set it aside.
Wash the baby potatoes thoroughly and slice any larger potatoes in half to ensure even cooking.
Peel and thinly slice the yellow onion. Mince the garlic cloves.
In a small bowl, combine the chicken broth, balsamic vinegar, soy sauce, honey, olive oil, dried rosemary, dried thyme, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Whisk together to create the marinade.
Place a layer of sliced onions and baby potatoes at the bottom of the crock pot.
Place the pork tenderloin on top of the potatoes and onions. Add the minced garlic and any remaining onions over the tenderloin.
Pour the marinade evenly over the pork and vegetables, ensuring everything is well-coated.
Cover the crock pot with its lid and cook on low heat for 8 hours or until the pork is tender and fully cooked (internal temperature of 145°F/63°C).
Once cooked, carefully remove the pork tenderloin and let it rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing.
Serve the sliced tenderloin with the potatoes and onions, and drizzle with the flavorful broth from the crock pot. Enjoy!
