1. Place oven rack in the middle position and preheat oven to 200 °C (400 °F).

2. In a large oven-safe skillet set over medium-high heat, heat oil and brown pork tenderloins for 2 minutes on each side. Season with salt and pepper.

3. In the same skillet, add tomatoes, honey, jam, garlic, rosemary and red pepper flakes. For medium rare, bake for 20 minutes or until a thermometer inserted into the centre of the meat reads 60 °C (140 °F). Flip tenderloins halfway through cooking. Transfer tenderloins to a plate, cover with foil and let stand for 10 minutes.

4. Meanwhile, in the same skillet, add the balsamic vinegar. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat and reduce for 1 minute, stirring with a wooden spoon. Add strawberries and continue cooking for 1 minute until warm. Cut pork tenderloins into 1-cm (½-in.) slices. Cover with gravy and serve with rice.
