Ingredients for Stuffed Pork TenderloinYou’ll love how simple it is to make this stuffed pork tenderloin with only pork, seasoning, and stuffing ingredients.

Pork Tenderloin – You can buy pork tenderloin just about anywhere but we prefer Costco. They sell a pack of 4 for $22-$25 which is so reasonable. You can easily double or triple this recipe for a larger party. See my notes below about tenderloin vs pork loin.

Filling Ingredients – bacon, brown mushrooms, onion, salt, pepper, garlic and parsley. Feel free to swap the brown mushrooms for white (or use a mix) and the parsley for dill (but use less). Pork Tenderloin vs. Pork LoinEven with similar names, pork tenderloin and pork loin are not interchangeable. We highly recommend using a pork tenderloin instead of pork loin roast for this recipe for these reasons:

Tenderness – pork tenderloin is softer, more tender, and more forgiving if slightly overcooked

Faster Cooking time – tenderloin is smaller and thinner so it’s ready in less time. This also results in even cooking.

Easier to Stuff – since it’s smaller, you don’t have to work as hard to butterfly the roast. Do I Have to Trim Pork Tenderloin?You may notice a silver skin or white fibrous layer attached to your pork tenderloin. Before cooking, always remove the silver skin since it does not break down while cooking and ends up being chewy and tough. Watch the video tutorial to see how to remove the silver skin from Pork Tenderloin.

How to Make Stuffed Pork TenderloinIt’s simple to make this delicious stuffed pork tenderloin. First, you whip up a quick filling, then you stuff and cook. It’s so simple!

Make the Bacon Mushroom Filling – Saute bacon over medium heat in an oven-safe skillet until browned. Then add onions and mushrooms, cooking for five more minutes or until soft. Season with salt, pepper, parsley, and garlic, cooking for 1 additional minute. Preheat the oven to 400°F.

Prepare the pork tenderloin – to remove the silver skin from the tenderloin, slide a sharp knife just under the silver skin and run it in one direction, being careful not to trim away meat. Butterfly the meat by slicing lengthwise without cutting all the way through. Open it like a book and then cover it with a piece of plastic wrap and pound to 1/2″ thick.

Stuff the Pork – spread the filling over the opened meat (save the skillet!) and roll tightly like a jelly roll, starting from the long end. Secure with toothpicks and then season the meat with salt and pepper.

Sear the Pork Tenderloin – Heat the reserved skillet and add a bit of olive oil. Place the rolled pork toothpick-side-down to brown for about 2 minutes. Flip and brown on all sides, and then move the skillet (or a separate roasting pan) carefully to the oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the pork reads 145°-150° on an instant-read thermometer.

Rest and Serve – Remove the pan from the oven, brush with pan drippings, and then move to a cutting board. Rest for 10 minutes and then slice into medallions. Brush with more pan drippings for the ultimate flavor boost. Pro Tip:Brushing the pork with the pan drippings imparts amazing flavor – the caramelized seasoned juices from the tenderloin have incredible concentrated flavor and glazing it over the tenderloin gives it a tantalizing golden glow.

Is Pork Supposed to be Pink?The center of a pork tenderloin can look a little bit pink which is normal. It’s best to test for doneness with a thermometer. The pork is cooked through at 145˚F, according to the USDA.

To Reheat: Thaw in the fridge. Heat a pan on the stove over medium speed. Add a bit of olive oil and pork slices, covering the pan with a lid.
