6 Serving(s)
Ingredients
- 2 lb. Schnucks pork tenderloin (2 tenderloins)
- 1 tbsp. Schnucks olive oil
- 1 tsp. Schnucks garlic powder
- 1 tsp. dried rosemary
- 1/2 tsp. dried thyme
- 10 slices Schnucks thick-cut bacon
- 6 tsp. Schnucks unsalted butter
- 8 fresh sage leaves
- 1 medium lemon
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Line a sheet pan with foil. Place a wire rack inside pan and coat rack with cooking spray.
- Pat pork dry. Rub with oil, garlic powder, rosemary and thyme; season with salt and pepper, if desired. Wrap bacon around pork, slightly overlapping each slice. Place seam-side down on prepared rack.
- Roast 30–35 minutes or until bacon is crisp and pork reaches an internal temperature of 145 degrees. Remove from oven and let rest 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, melt butter in a small skillet over medium. Add sage leaves and cook, turning once, 1–2 minutes or until crisp. Transfer sage to a paper towel-lined plate. Continue cooking butter, swirling occasionally, 2–3 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from heat. Juice half the lemon and stir 1 tbsp. juice into butter.
- Slice pork into medallions and arrange on a serving platter. Spoon brown butter over pork. Top with crispy sage and garnish with lemon slices cut from remaining lemon. Serve immediately.
Chef’s Tip
Roast pork directly on a foil-lined sheet pan, turning once halfway through cooking for evenly browned bacon.
