Ingredients

4 people
  • 2 pork tenderloins (approx. 300-500g each)
  • 8 slices bacon ( or raw Italian ham)
  • olive oil, butter, salt and pepper

Equipment

  • Oven dish
  • Meat thermometer

INSTRUCTIONS (how to make this recipe):

  • Remove the pork tenderloins from the fridge about half an hour beforehand and, in the meantime, preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius / 355 Fahrenheit top and bottom heat.
  • Pat the tenderloins dry with kitchen paper and sprinkle generously with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Heat a little oil and butter in a large frying pan and fry the meat on all sides. It does not need to be cooked, just seared.
  • Remove the tenderloins from the pan, wrap it in bacon or ham and place it in an oven dish.
  • Put the pork loin in the oven for about 15-20 minutes, depending on how thick/large your pieces of pork loin are. To ensure a juicy loin, maintain an internal temperature of 60-63 degrees. You can use a meat thermometer to check.
  • Remove the pork tenderloin from the oven and cover with aluminium foil before carving, this will allow the meat to rest for 5 minutes maintaining all its juices and give you a super tender piece of meat. Serve on a nice platter and enjoy!
