For a richer flavor, use a high-quality balsamic vinegar.
Don't overcrowd the pan when searing the pork, or it will steam instead of brown. Work in batches if necessary.
A splash of dry white wine added to the sauce along with the chicken broth can add another layer of flavor.
Serve with a side of creamy polenta or mashed potatoes to soak up the delicious sauce.

    This recipe was so easy and quick! The balsamic sauce was amazing.

  • Jerrod Brown

    I added a pinch of red pepper flakes for a little heat. Will definitely make again!

  • Naomie Windler

    My family loved this! The pork was tender and the sauce was bursting with flavor.

  • Vinnie Hauck

    I found that the sauce thickened up very quickly, so keep an eye on it. I also used pork chops instead of tenderloin, and it worked great.
