BACON-WRAPPED PORK TENDERLOIN

Provided by Ree Drummond : Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h5m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 pork tenderloin
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
8 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature
1/4 cup pesto
1/4 cup pine nuts, toasted
1/2 cup drained and sliced sundried tomatoes in oil
1/2 cup baby spinach leaves, rinsed and spun dry
10 slices of bacon

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Place a sheet pan in the oven to preheat.
  • Slice the pork tenderloin lengthwise, so it will open like a book, being careful to not cut all the way through. Open the loin and gently pound with a meat mallet until it is an even thickness and rectangular in shape.
  • Sprinkle the meat with salt and pepper. Spread the cream cheese in an even layer on the meat, leaving a 1/2 inch of pork uncovered around the edges. Spread the pesto on top of the cream cheese, then sprinkle on the pine nuts and sundried tomatoes. Top with an even layer of spinach. Starting on one of the longer sides of your rectangle, roll the meat closed into a long tube and set aside.
  • Place a piece of plastic wrap on a flat surface and lay out the bacon so the slices overlap slightly. Lay the rolled pork tenderloin at one end of the bacon strip arrangement, seam-side down. Using the plastic wrap, roll the bacon up and around the meat.
  • Using butcher's twine, tie around the bacon at 2-inch intervals along the length of the roll, so that the bacon cannot come loose during cooking. Tuck the meat closed on both ends and secure with toothpicks.
  • Place the pork, seam-side down, on the heated sheet pan and roast until the bacon is browned and the pork is cooked, about 45 minutes. Let the pork rest for a few minutes before slicing.

PORK TENDERLOIN MEDALLION CHOPS WRAPPED IN BACON



Pork tenderloin medallion chops wrapped in bacon image

everything goes better with bacon. These little pork tenderloin chops are really the filet mignon of pork so wrapping them in bacon makes sense just like you would a steak. They're quite a bit smaller though so you want to allow for 2 to 3 per guest. Be sure to use thinly sliced bacon so it will get cooked through at the same...

Provided by Lynnda Cloutier

Categories     Steaks and Chops

Number Of Ingredients 6

glaze:
3 cups apple juice
1 tablespoon sugar in the raw
12 slices thinly sliced bacon
12 pork tenderloin medallion chops, about 1 1/2 inches thick
black pepper

Steps:

  • 1. soak 12 toothpicks in water for at least one hour.
  • 2. To make the glaze, in a medium pan over medium-high heat, heat the apple juice. Bring to a slow boil and cook for 15 to 20 minutes until reduced to 1 cup. Add the sugar and mix well. Transfer to a bowl and set aside to cool. Wrap a slice of bacon around the circumference of each tenderloin medallion and secure with a toothpick. Season each chop lightly on both sides with black pepper.
  • 3. Prepare the grill for cooking over direct medium heat. Place the chops directly on the cooking grate. Cook for three minutes. Flip and cook for three more minutes. Flip and brush with the prepared glaze. Cook for one minute. Brush again, flip, and brush the other side. Cook for one minute more and brush again. Flip and brush two more times cooking for one minute each time. Remove to a platter and let rest for three minutes before serving. Serves 4 to 6.The apple glaze is very simple but makes a perfect accompaniment to the pork and bacon combo. These would go very well served with a rice pilaf and green peas.

Tips:

  • Selecting the Right Pork Tenderloin: Choose a tenderloin that is firm to the touch, without any visible signs of bruising or damage. Fresh pork tenderloins should have a slightly pink hue.
  • Preparing the Tenderloin: Remove any excess fat or silverskin from the tenderloin. If you prefer a more evenly cooked tenderloin, you can butterfly it by slicing it lengthwise, almost all the way through, then opening it up like a book.
  • Seasoning the Tenderloin: Before wrapping it in bacon, season the tenderloin generously with your preferred blend of spices and herbs. This could include salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, or a pre-mixed seasoning blend.
  • Choosing the Right Bacon: Opt for high-quality bacon that is thick-cut and not too salty. This will ensure that the bacon cooks evenly and provides a crispy, flavorful exterior to the tenderloin.
  • Wrapping the Tenderloin: Wrap the seasoned tenderloin tightly with the bacon slices, ensuring that the bacon overlaps slightly. Use toothpicks or butcher's twine to secure the bacon in place.
  • Cooking the Tenderloin: Place the bacon-wrapped tenderloin in a baking dish or on a wire rack set over a baking sheet. Cook in a preheated oven at the recommended temperature until the internal temperature of the tenderloin reaches 145°F (63°C) for medium-rare or 160°F (71°C) for medium.
  • Resting the Tenderloin: Once the tenderloin is cooked, remove it from the oven and let it rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing and serving. This allows the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a more tender and flavorful dish.

Conclusion:

Bacon-wrapped pork tenderloin is a versatile and delicious dish that can be enjoyed for a variety of occasions. By following these tips, you can create a perfectly cooked tenderloin that is juicy, flavorful, and sure to impress your friends and family. Whether you prefer a classic seasoning blend or something more adventurous, experimenting with different flavors and cooking techniques can help you find the perfect bacon-wrapped pork tenderloin recipe to suit your taste.
