Ingredients for Stuffed Pork Tenderloin
- 1 (2-pound) pork tenderloin, butterflied
- 4 ounces prosciutto slices
- 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 8 ounces cremini or button mushrooms, sliced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 cups fresh spinach
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- Salt and black pepper, to taste
- Toothpicks or kitchen twine
Step-by-Step Instructions
- Prep the Pork: Pat the butterflied pork tenderloin dry and season with salt and pepper on both sides.
- Sauté the Filling: In a skillet over medium heat, warm 1 tablespoon olive oil and butter. Add mushrooms and garlic; cook until mushrooms are golden, about 5 minutes. Toss in spinach until wilted. Remove from heat and stir in Parmesan.
- Assemble the Roll: Lay prosciutto slices overlapping on a cutting board. Spread the mushroom-spinach mixture evenly. Place the pork tenderloin on top and roll tightly, securing with toothpicks or twine.
- Sear and Roast: Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). In a hot, oven-safe skillet, heat remaining olive oil. Sear the pork on all sides until golden brown, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer skillet to the oven; roast for 35–40 minutes or until internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C).
- Rest and Slice: Remove from oven and let rest 10 minutes. Slice into medallions and serve.
Tips & Tricks for Perfect Stuffed Tenderloin
- Butterfly with Confidence: Keep the knife parallel to the cutting board for an even thickness.
- Room Temperature Meat: Bring pork to room temperature for more even cooking.
- Make-Ahead Magic: Assemble the roll the night before and refrigerate, covered, to deepen flavors.
- Sauce It Up: Drizzle with pan juices or a simple red wine reduction to elevate the dish.
