Method

1.
Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
2.
Season the pork tenderloin with salt and pepper.

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and sear the pork on all sides until golden brown, about 5-7 minutes.
4.
Remove the pork from the skillet and set aside.

7.
Place the seared pork back in the skillet with the cherry balsamic mixture.

9.
Remove from oven and let rest for 5 minutes. Then slice the pork.
10.
Stir butter into the cherry balsamic sauce until melted and glossy.
11.
