Ingredients

• 1 whole (about 1.5 pounds) pork tenderloin
• 2 cups baby spinach
• 0.5 cup (chopped) sun-dried tomatoes
• 0.5 cup breadcrumbs
• 0.3333 cup (grated) parmesan cheese
• 2 cloves (minced) garlic
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 teaspoon (chopped) fresh rosemary
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 4 pieces (12 inches each) kitchen twine

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

Butterfly the pork tenderloin by slicing it lengthwise down the center, being careful not to cut all the way through. Open it up like a book and cover it with plastic wrap.

Step 3

Using a meat mallet, pound the tenderloin to an even thickness of about 1/2 inch.

Step 4

In a large skillet over medium heat, add 1 tablespoon of olive oil and sauté the minced garlic until fragrant, about 30 seconds.

Step 5

Add the baby spinach to the skillet and cook until wilted, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool for a minute.

Step 6

In a mixing bowl, combine the cooked spinach, sun-dried tomatoes, breadcrumbs, parmesan cheese, and rosemary. Mix well.

Step 7

Spread the stuffing mixture evenly over the tenderized pork, leaving a 1-inch border along the edges.

Step 8

Carefully roll the pork tenderloin tightly into a log, starting from one long edge and rolling toward the opposite edge. Secure the roll with kitchen twine, tying it in four evenly spaced sections.

Step 9

Rub the outside of the pork with the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil and season with the salt and black pepper.

Step 10

Place the stuffed pork tenderloin on the prepared baking sheet seam-side down and roast in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C) is reached.

Step 11

Remove the pork from the oven and allow it to rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing into 1-inch thick medallions.

Step 12

Serve warm with your favorite side dishes for a beautiful and flavorful meal.
