Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 T EVO
1 medium white onion, diced
1 medium carrot, diced
2 stalks celery, diced
2 bay leaves
Pinch black peppercorns
1 2-lb. pork tenderloin, silver skin removed, butterflied
1 T chopped rosemary
1 T chopped fennel seeds
4 oz. Gorgonzola, sliced into strips
8 dried Turkish figs
1 C white wine
Mixed salad greens for garnish

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375. In an ovenproof skillet over medium heat, warm EVO. Add onion, carrot, celery, bay leaves, peppercorns, sauté 5 minutes, set aside. Pound the tenderloin with mallet until flat and even. Season with salt and pepper, sprinkle with rosemary and fennel seeds. Line up Gorgonzola strips and figs in the center of the meat. Fold one flap over the filling, roll up tightly lengthwise and tie with butcher's string, tucking rosemary sprigs underneath. Rub with EVO and season with salt and pepper. Return the skillet with vegetables to medium heat and add the tenderloin. Deglaze with the wine. Place in the oven to roast for 25 minutes. Slice the tenderloin into 1 inch thick pieces. Pass the vegetable and pan juices through a fine sieve, reserving the strained liquid for sauce. Garnish with mixed greens. From La Cucina Italiana, September - October 2004

I made this dish in my slow cooker and it turned out amazing! The pork was fall-off-the-bone tender and the stuffing was creamy and flavorful. Highly recommend this method of cooking.

I'm not a fan of figs, so I substituted them with dried apricots. The dish turned out great! The apricots added a sweet and tangy flavor to the stuffing.

This recipe was a bit too complicated for me. I think I'll try a simpler recipe next time.

The pork was a bit tough, but the stuffing was delicious. I think I'll try marinating the pork overnight next time to make it more tender.

I found this recipe to be a bit too salty. I think I'll reduce the amount of salt in the stuffing next time.

This stuffed pork tenderloin was a bit dry, and the stuffing was bland. I think I might have overcooked the pork, so I'll try again with a lower temperature next time.
