Pork Wellington With Prosciutto And Spinach Mushroom Stuffing Recipes

PORK TENDERLOIN STUFFED WELLINGTON

Steps:

• 1. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onions and sauté until they begin to soften, about 5 minutes. Add the spinach and sauté for a couple of minutes until the moisture evaporates. Remove from heat and let cool.
• 2. Cut through the pork tenderloin lengthwise to within ½-inch of cutting all the way through. Open up the pork like a book and pound out each side until it's about ¼-inch thick. Distribute the spinach and onion mix along with the feta over the tenderloin and salt and pepper to taste.
• 3. Roll the tenderloin back together, and then wrap the tenderloin with the prosciutto. Once wrapped with the prosciutto, unfold your puff pastry on a flowered countertop and roll your tenderloin around it. Brush on an egg wash.
• 4. It is now ready for the oven. I would suggest using a pan with grate on it, that allows for dripping into the pan without getting the bottom of your tenderloin soggy. Roast the pork until a thermometer inserted into thickest part registers 150°F, about 35 minutes.
• 5. Many times pork tenderloin's come in a package of two tenderloins. If this is the case, I always just make two of these, they taste great the next day also.

PORK WELLINGTON WITH PROSCIUTTO AND SPINACH-MUSHROOM STUFFING

Steps:

• Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Add onion, mushrooms, and thyme; season with salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until mushrooms are browned, 10 to 12 minutes. Add spinach; cook 2 minutes more. Add vinegar and 1/3 cup cream. Cook, scraping browned bits from bottom of skillet, 1 minute. Let cool completely.
• Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Cut a slit down length of each tenderloin, deep enough to reach center, and season with salt. Pack mushroom mixture evenly into slits, then reshape tenderloins into logs with your hands, enclosing filling as much as possible.
• Unfold pastry on a lightly floured work surface. Roll out to an approximately 13-inch square; cut in half. Starting at one short end of each piece, score diagonal lines, 1 inch apart, with a sharp knife or pizza wheel (do not cut all the way through). Score in other direction, creating a crosshatch pattern. Transfer both doughs to a parchment-lined rimmed baking sheet, scored-sides down (if they become too soft, chill briefly). Divide prosciutto evenly between doughs, overlapping to fit and leaving 1-inch borders of dough. Center a tenderloin on top of each dough, stuffed-sides down. Whisk egg with 1 teaspoon water; brush borders with egg wash. Lift long sides of each dough up and over pork, stretching slightly as necessary until edges meet; pinch edges to seal. Fold short sides up over pork and flip so seams face down. Brush all over with egg wash; cut a few 1-inch vents in tops. Refrigerate 30 minutes.
• Bake until pastry is puffed and golden brown and a thermometer inserted into centers of pork registers 140 degrees, 20 to 25 minutes. Transfer Wellingtons to a wire rack; let cool 15 minutes. Meanwhile, stir together mustard, remaining 1/3 cup cream, and 2 tablespoons water; season with salt and pepper. Slice Wellingtons into 2-inch rounds and serve with mustard sauce.
