Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 whole (about 1.5 pounds) pork tenderloin
- 2 cups baby spinach
- 0.5 cup (chopped) sun-dried tomatoes
- 0.5 cup breadcrumbs
- 0.3333 cup (grated) parmesan cheese
- 2 cloves (minced) garlic
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon (chopped) fresh rosemary
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 4 pieces (12 inches each) kitchen twine
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Butterfly the pork tenderloin by slicing it lengthwise down the center, being careful not to cut all the way through. Open it up like a book and cover it with plastic wrap.
Using a meat mallet, pound the tenderloin to an even thickness of about 1/2 inch.
In a large skillet over medium heat, add 1 tablespoon of olive oil and sauté the minced garlic until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
Add the baby spinach to the skillet and cook until wilted, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool for a minute.
In a mixing bowl, combine the cooked spinach, sun-dried tomatoes, breadcrumbs, parmesan cheese, and rosemary. Mix well.
Spread the stuffing mixture evenly over the tenderized pork, leaving a 1-inch border along the edges.
Carefully roll the pork tenderloin tightly into a log, starting from one long edge and rolling toward the opposite edge. Secure the roll with kitchen twine, tying it in four evenly spaced sections.
Rub the outside of the pork with the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil and season with the salt and black pepper.
Place the stuffed pork tenderloin on the prepared baking sheet seam-side down and roast in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C) is reached.
Remove the pork from the oven and allow it to rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing into 1-inch thick medallions.
Serve warm with your favorite side dishes for a beautiful and flavorful meal.
