Bacon Wrapped Pork Medallions

Pork

This recipe for pork tenderloin wrapped in bacon is a variation of a recipe my mother used to make with my own spin on the seasonings. It's also one of our favorites to enjoy around the holidays!

Ingredients

1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon seasoning salt
1 teaspoon dried basil
1 teaspoon dried oregano
8 slices bacon
2 pounds pork tenderloin
2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons olive oil

Description

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Combine garlic powder, seasoning salt, basil, and oregano in a small bowl.
Cook bacon in a large, oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until lightly browned and still flexible, 6 to 7 minutes. Transfer bacon to a paper towel-lined plate. Drain any excess bacon grease from the skillet.
Wrap four slices bacon around each tenderloin, securing each strip with 1 to 2 toothpicks. Slice tenderloins between each bacon strip to create a total of eight medallions. Dip medallions into seasoning mix on both sides.
Melt butter and oil together in the same skillet over medium-high heat. Add medallions and cook for 4 minutes on each side.
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake until pork is no longer pink in the center, 17 to 20 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).
