Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Pork tenderloin
- 3 cloves Garlic cloves
- 2 sprigs Fresh rosemary
- 6 slices Bacon
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Kosher salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 cup Chicken broth
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Pat the pork tenderloin dry with paper towels and trim any excess fat or silver skin.
Finely mince the garlic and chop the rosemary leaves. In a small bowl, combine garlic, rosemary, salt, pepper, and paprika.
Rub the spice mixture evenly over the pork tenderloin.
Lay out the bacon slices on a clean surface, slightly overlapping them to create a sheet. Place the seasoned pork tenderloin at one edge of the bacon sheet and roll it up tightly, ensuring the bacon completely covers the pork.
Heat olive oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, place the bacon-wrapped pork seam-side down in the skillet and sear for 2-3 minutes until the bacon starts to crisp. Rotate and sear all sides for even browning.
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and cook for 20-25 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the pork reaches 145°F (63°C).
Remove the skillet from the oven and transfer the pork to a cutting board. Let it rest for 5-10 minutes to retain the juices.
While the pork rests, place the skillet back over medium heat. Add chicken broth and butter to the skillet, scraping the bottom to release any browned bits. Simmer for 3-4 minutes to make a light sauce.
Slice the pork tenderloin into medallions and serve with the pan sauce drizzled over the top.
