Ingredients

Servings: 4

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

Instructions

  • Preheat an oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  • Place the bacon in a large, oven-safe skillet, and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until lightly browned and still flexible, 6 to 7 minutes.
  • Drain the bacon slices on a paper towel-lined plate.
  • Remove any excess bacon grease from the skillet.
  • Combine garlic powder, seasoning salt, basil, and oregano in a small bowl.
  • Set aside.
  • Wrap the pork tenderloin with the bacon strips securing with 1 or 2 toothpicks per strip of bacon.
  • Slice the tenderloin between each bacon strip to create the medallions.
  • Dip both sides of the medallions in seasoning mix.
  • Melt butter and oil together in the same skillet over medium-high heat.
  • Cook each medallion for 4 minutes on each side.
  • Place skillet into the preheated oven and bake until the 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).
