Herb Cheese Tenderloin Recipes

Steps:

• Combine the lemon zest, lemon juice, 1/2 cup olive oil, garlic, rosemary, thyme, mustard, and 2 teaspoons salt in a sturdy 1-gallon resealable plastic bag. Add the pork tenderloins and turn to coat with the marinade. Squeeze out the air and seal the bag. Marinate the pork in the refrigerator for at least 3 hours but preferably overnight.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Remove the tenderloins from the marinade and discard the marinade but leave the herbs that cling to the meat. Sprinkle the tenderloins generously with salt and pepper. Heat 3 tablespoons olive oil in a large oven-proof saute pan over medium-high heat. Sear the pork tenderloins on all sides until golden brown. Place the saute pan in the oven and roast the tenderloins for 10 to 15 minutes or until the meat registers 137 degrees F at the thickest part. Transfer the tenderloins to a platter and cover tightly with aluminum foil. Allow to rest for 10 minutes. Carve in 1/2-inch-thick diagonal slices. The thickest part of the tenderloin will be quite pink (it's just fine!) and the thinnest part will be well done. Season with salt and pepper and serve warm, or at room temperature with the juices that collect in the platter.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a baking sheet.
• Mix green onions, bacon, Cheddar cheese, cream cheese, spinach, mushrooms, garlic, parsley, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Spread onto one side of pounded tenderloin. Roll tenderloin around the filling in a jelly-roll fashion. Coat rolled tenderloin with bread crumbs; place on the prepared baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven until pork is no longer pink in the center, about 1 1/2 hours. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 525 degrees F (274 degrees C). Set a cooking rack in a roasting pan.
• Combine bread crumbs, olive oil, Worcestershire sauce, shallot, garlic, parsley, rosemary, thyme, Dijon, and pepper in the bowl of a food processor; pulse to a paste-like consistency.
• Spread herb paste all over the tenderloin. Tuck thinner end of the tenderloin underneath so it will cook evenly. Season with salt and pepper and place on the prepared cooking rack.
• Place in the preheated oven and reduce temperature to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Bake until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center reads 135 degrees F (57 degrees C), about 45 minutes.
• Remove from the oven and let rest for about 10 minutes before slicing into medallions.
