Serve this stuffed pork tenderloin for a hearty meal with your family! It is seared for a golden brown skin and stuffed with ham and cheese.
Ingredients
For Roast:
- 2 lbs pork tenderloin
- 5 oz Monterey jack cheese, grated
- 5 oz sandwich ham slices
- 3 tbsp vegetable oil
For Rub:
- 1⁄2 tsp ground coriander
- 1⁄2 tsp ground black pepper
- 1⁄4 tsp dried oregano
- 1⁄4 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp ground celery seeds
- 2 tsp salt
- 1 tbsp brown sugar
- 1 tsp ground cumin
- 2 tsp paprika
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F.
-
Add all rub ingredients together and mix well. Set aside.
-
Using a sharp knife, cut 1-inch above the cutting surface while slowly opening the tenderloin out.
-
Continue making the cuts, stopping once the other end of the tenderloin is near. Repeat until the surface area of the pork tenderloin has tripled.
-
Cover with cling film and lightly tenderize the thickest part of the pork tenderloin with a mallet.
-
Once done, generously season both sides with the prepared rub.
-
Layer ham over the surface of the meat, followed by sprinkling the cheese.
-
Roll up the pork tenderloin and the stuffing, then truss with butcher twine.
-
Place the trussed pork roast onto a wire rack and roast for roughly 1½ hours, until the internal temperature reaches 135 degrees F.
-
Once roasted, set aside in a warm area and allow to rest for at least 25 minutes.
-
Heat up the oil in a skillet over high heat. Place the rested pork loin and sear evenly on all sides, no more than 5 minutes per side.
-
Once seared, place onto the working area and cut off the twine. Portion accordingly and serve.
