Mushroom Bacon Stuffed Pork Tenderloin

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 400°F.
2. Cook bacon until crisp, about 8 minutes, and remove from the pan reserving 1 tablespoon of the fat in the pan. Add the mushrooms, garlic, & pepper. Cook until soft. Remove from the heat and stir in the breadcrumbs and parsley. Let cool.
3. Cut the pork across (not all the way through) lengthwise so you can open it like a book. Pound the meat with a mallet until it's about ½" thick.
4. Cover the pork with the bacon/mushroom mixture. Starting with a long side, roll up each tenderloin and secure with toothpicks.
5. Combine the olive oil and dijon mustard. Rub over the outside of the pork. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
6. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large ovenproof skillet over medium-hight heat and add the tenderloin. Brown on both sides, about 3 minutes per side.
7. Place the skillet in the oven and bake 17-20 minutes or just until pork reaches 145°F. Remove from pan and let rest 10 minutes before slicing.
