Best 3 Prosciutto Wrapped Pork Tenderloin With Honey Poached Pears Gorgonzola Recipes

PROSCIUTTO-WRAPPED PORK LOIN

Steps:

• Combine the parsley, sage, mustard and shallot in a mini food processor and pulse until coarsely chopped and combined. Add the olive oil and blend to form a paste. Season with salt and pepper.
• Season the pork loin with salt and rub the paste all over it. Lay the prosciutto slices on a piece of parchment paper, shingled in 2 overlapping rows to form a 12-inch square. Place the pork loin in the middle of the prosciutto square. Using the parchment to help you roll, roll the prosciutto up over the loin, pressing firmly to adhere the prosciutto to the loin. Continue to roll until the entire pork loin is tightly covered in prosciutto (the prosciutto should overlap itself). Refrigerate at least 1 hour, preferably overnight.
• In a small saucepan, bring the sugar, maple syrup, BBQ sauce, star anise, cinnamon stick, orange zest and jalapeño to a simmer. Let cool to room temperature, or overnight in the fridge.
• When you're ready to roast the pork, preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Place the butter, garlic and rosemary in a large, ovenproof saute pan and heat over medium-low heat until the butter is melted, about 2 minutes. Lay the prosciutto-wrapped loin in the pan seam-side down. Roast until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the center of the loin reads 120 degrees F, 30 to 40 minutes.
• Brush the glaze on the loin and continue to roast to 135 degrees F for medium, 10 to 15 minutes more. Allow the meat to rest before slicing, then spoon the pan juices over the pork slices.

PROSCIUTTO-WRAPPED PEARS

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a small skillet over medium-high heat until hot. Add the sage and fry, stirring occasionally, until the bubbling subsides, about 30 seconds. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate with a slotted spoon. Reserve the oil.
• In a small bowl, stir together the ricotta, honey, 1 tablespoon of the reserved sage-frying oil, a pinch of salt and a few grinds of pepper until well combined.
• Cut each pear lengthwise into 10 slices (each approximately 1/4 inch wide). Wrap each in a 1/2 slice prosciutto. Arrange on a serving platter and top each slice with a dollop of ricotta and a fried sage leaf.

PORK TENDERLOIN WITH GORGONZOLA SAUCE

Steps:

• For the pork: Orl a large rimmed baking sheet. Whisk the Dijon, olive oil and Thyme in a small bowl. Sprikle the tenderloins with salt and pepper. Heat a large nonstick skillet over high heat. Add pork and sear until brown all over, about 10 minutes.
• Transfer seared pork to prepared baking sheet. Spread Dijon mixture all over the pork. (Can do this a couple of hours ahead and refrigerate until your ready to cook).
• Preheat the oven to 425°F Roast pork until internal temp is 150, about 30 minutes. Remove from the oven and stand for 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile prepare the sauce.
• Melt 1 tbsp butter in a heavy small saucepan over medium heat. Add 1 Tbsp flour and whisk for 1 minute. Gradually whisk in the cream, white wine and chicken broth. Boil until the mixture is thick enough to coat the back of the spoon, whisking frequently, about 1 minute.
• Add Gorgonzola and whisk until the cheese is melted and smooth, about 5 minutes.
• Slice pork onto plates. Ladle over the sauce. Pass additional sauce seperately.
