Ingredients:

• 2 pounds Pork tenderloin
• 1 teaspoon Ground sage
• ½ teaspoon Salt
• ½ cup Brown sugar
• ¼ cup Balsamic vinegar
• ¼ cup Water
• 2 cloves Garlic, minced
• 1 tablespoon Cornstarch (optional, for thickening)

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Pork:
   1. Begin by seasoning the pork tenderloin with ground sage and salt.
   2. Rub the seasoning evenly over the pork, ensuring it’s well coated for maximum flavor.
2. Create the Glaze:
   1. In a mixing bowl, combine brown sugar, balsamic vinegar, water, and minced garlic.
   2. Stir until the brown sugar is fully dissolved, creating a rich and aromatic glaze.
3. Layer in the Crockpot:
   1. Place the seasoned pork tenderloin in the crockpot, and pour the prepared glaze over the top, ensuring it coats the pork evenly.
   2. For an extra depth of flavor, you can also add some sliced onions or carrots around the pork.
4. Cook to Perfection:
   1. Cover the crockpot and cook on low heat for 6-8 hours or on high heat for 3-4 hours.
   2. Slow cooking allows the pork to become incredibly tender while absorbing all the delicious flavors of the glaze.
5. Thicken the Glaze (Optional):
   1. If you prefer a thicker glaze, you can remove the pork from the crockpot once it’s cooked and transfer the remaining liquid to a saucepan.
   2. In a small bowl, mix cornstarch with a tablespoon of water to create a slurry.
   3. Whisk the slurry into the liquid in the saucepan and simmer until the sauce thickens to your desired consistency.
6. Serve and Enjoy:
   1. Once the pork is cooked to perfection and the glaze is thickened (if desired), slice the tenderloin into thick pieces and drizzle with the luscious balsamic glaze.
   2. Serve hot alongside your favorite side dishes, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or steamed rice, and prepare to be amazed by the burst of flavors in every bite!

Ingredients:

• 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 1/2 cup apricot jam
• 1/4 cup mayonnaise
• 1 tablespoon chicken spice (you can use a pre-made chicken spice blend or make your own with a mix of paprika, garlic powder,
• onion powder, salt, pepper, and any other herbs or spices you like)
• Salt and pepper to taste
• Optional: Fresh herbs like parsley or thyme for garnish

Instructions:

1. Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. Prepare the chicken: Season the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, and the chicken spice blend on both sides.
3. Make the glaze: In a small bowl, mix together the apricot jam and mayonnaise until well combined.
4. Coat the chicken: Place the seasoned chicken breasts in a baking dish or on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Spoon the apricot-mayo glaze over the chicken, spreading it evenly to coat each piece.
5. Bake: Transfer the baking dish to the preheated oven and bake for about 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the glaze is bubbly and caramelized.
6. Serve: Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes. Optionally, garnish with fresh herbs like parsley or thyme before serving.
7. Enjoy: Serve the apricot glazed chicken hot, accompanied by your favorite sides like rice, roasted vegetables, or a fresh salad.
