Herbed Pork Tenderloin In Puff Pastry Crust Recipes

HERB CRUSTED PORK TENDERLOIN

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400° F. Line a baking sheet with foil.
• Combine Dijon mustard, 1 tablespoon olive oil, and soy sauce in a small bowl. Brush over the pork.
• Combine fresh herbs, salt, and pepper in a small bowl. Sprinkle over the pork (or roll the pork in the mixture).
• Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a skillet over medium heat and brown pork, about 2 minutes per side.
• Place pork on a baking sheet and roast 18-20 minutes or until a thermometer reads an internal temperature of 145° F.
• Allow to rest for at least 5 minutes before slicing.

HERBED PORK TENDERLOINS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
• Place the tenderloins on a sheet pan and pat them dry with paper towels. Combine the rosemary, thyme, 1 tablespoon salt, and 1 teaspoon pepper in a small bowl. Rub the tenderloins all over with 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Sprinkle all sides with the herb mixture. If there is a thinner "tail," fold it underneath so the tenderloin is an even thickness throughout. Wrap the tenderloins completely with a single layer of prosciutto. (I place the prosciutto sideways with the ends wrapping under the tenderloins.) Tie in several places with kitchen string to hold the prosciutto and the "tail" in place.
• Roast for 20 to 25 minutes, until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the middle of the end of the tenderloin reads 140 degrees F for medium rare and 145 degrees F for medium. Cover the tenderloins tightly with aluminum foil and allow to rest at room temperature for 15 minutes. Slice diagonally in thick slices and serve warm with apple chutney.

HERB-MARINATED PORK TENDERLOINS

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.

HERBED PORK TENDERLOIN IN PUFF PASTRY CRUST

Steps:

• Marinate the pork: Toss the pork tenderloins with the remaining ingredients except the salt in a bowl, and rub well to coat thoroughly. Cover in a air tight bowl and refrigerate 24 to 48 hours.
• When you are ready to bake, rub the pork tenderloins with the salt.
• To bake: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees (preferably set on convection bake).
• Roll each tenderloin tightly in the puff pastry and seal the edges of the pastry to enclose completely (excess pastry should be trimmed). If you like, wrap the tenderloins first in Pancetta.
• Brush the puff pastry with the beaten egg and place, seam side down, on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet.
• Roast the pork in the preheated oven for 30 minutes, or until the crust is golden-brown and the pork registers 170 degrees.
• Remove to a board and let rest 10 minutes. Cut into medallions and serve with mustard.

PORK WELLINGTON

Steps:

• Place a rack in the upper third of the oven and heat to 400 degrees F.
• Whisk the egg and water in a small bowl and set aside. Place the apple rings into the bowl of a mini food processor and process for 30 to 45 seconds or until they are the size of a medium dice. Set aside.
• Trim the pork tenderloin of any excess fat and silver skin. Slice the tenderloin down the middle lengthwise, creating 2 separate pieces. Lay the tenderloin pieces next to each other head to tail, so when laid back together they are the same size at the ends.
• Lay out a 12 by 16-inch piece of parchment paper on the counter and arrange the pieces of prosciutto in the center, overlapping them enough to create solid layer that is as long as the tenderloin. Top with a second piece of parchment, and using a rolling pin, roll over the prosciutto to help adhere the pieces to each other. Remove the parchment paper and sprinkle the prosciutto with the salt, pepper, and thyme. Set the tenderloin down the middle of the prosciutto. Spread the dried apples in between the 2 pieces of tenderloin and push back together so the apples are held between them. Using the parchment paper to assist, wrap the prosciutto around the tenderloin to completely enclose in a package.
• Sprinkle the counter with flour and roll out the pastry to 12 by 14 inches. Spread the mustard thinly in the center of pastry and lay the prosciutto wrapped tenderloin in the center of the pastry on the mustard. Fold the puff pastry up and over the top of the tenderloin, then roll to completely enclose, brushing the edges of the pastry with the egg wash in order to seal. Turn the tenderloin over so the side of the tenderloin with the double thickness of pastry is underneath. Pinch the ends of the pastry to seal.
• Brush the entire pastry with the egg wash. Place the tenderloin on a parchment lined half sheet pan and bake for 25 to 30 minutes or until the pork reaches an internal temperature of at least 140 degrees F.
• Remove the tenderloin from the oven, transfer to a cooling rack and let rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.

• You can whisk a little flour into the pan juices to make a gravy.

HERB-CRUSTED ROAST PORK

SAVORY PUFF PASTRY WRAPPED PORK TENDERLOIN

Steps:

• I seasoned with salt and pepper and quickly browned all sides of the tenderloin for a total of about 10 mins, remove and let cool.
• Melt butter over medium heat and add apples, onions and garlic. Saute until tender, about another 10 mins, remove from heat and let cool.
• Finely chop the package of herbs, add as much or as little as you prefer.
• Add to the cooling apple mixture.
• Prepare the stuffing according to the box and let cool.
• Roll out the pastry on a floured surface to the size of your tenderloin with extra room on the sides to be able to fold and tuck pastry inches ( I tried to get mine to be 'rectangular' shape but ended up with something that looked more like an ameba lol).
• Cut the tenderloin in half, lengthwise. (This is because a tenderloin is usually fatter at one end.).
• Take one part of the tenderloin and flip it so that one fat end is meeting up with a skinny end, and place in the middle of the pastry. (I left mine a little 'butterflied').
• Top the tenderloin with the stuffing followed by the apple mixture and then if so desired the cheese of your choice.
• Then just gently roll the tenderloin in the pastry, tucking in the ends while you roll.
• Brush with a beaten egg with water all over the top and sides.
• Place seam side down on a baking sheet.
• Bake at 375 for 30-40 mins, or until golden brown.
• Let cool for 10 mins and serve, ENJOY.
• Note: I used one square of puff pastry per tenderloin, I had to make 2 to feed everyone :) But the mixtures will fill both tenderloins, so there is no need to double up.
