Ingredients

  • 2 pork loins cut in half
  • 1 tbsp rosemary
  • 1 tbsp thyme
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp pepper
  • 1 small red onion diced
  • 1/2 cup balsamic vinegar
  • 4 tbsp butter or ghee

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees fahrenheit
  2. Season pork loin with rosemary, thyme, garlic powder, salt and pepper
  3. Heat cast iron skillet to Medium-High heat
  4. Add 2 tbsp butter and enough balsamic to coat the pan (2-3 tbsp)
  5. Cook pork loin over Medium-High heat for 3 minutes on each of the larger-surface area sides, and 2 minutes on each of the smaller sides (10 minutes total)
  6. Add red onions to the skillet. Transfer cast iron skillet to oven (carefully!) to bake for 15 minutes
  7. After 15 minutes, take out skillet and place back on stovetop. Use tongs to move the pork loin to a plate or surface and cover in foil
  8. While pork is resting, heat skillet up to Medium and add 2 tbsp butter. Gradually stir in 1/3 cup balsamic vinegar, scraping any bits and spices from the bottom and stirring for about 5 minutes
