Bacon-Wrapped Pork Tenderloin Medallions

Category: Pork - Chops and Steaks

•1 pork tenderloin (see note below)
•4 strips bacon
•½ cup soy sauce
•½ cup brown sugar, packed
•2 tablespoons olive oil
•2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
•Kosher salt, to taste


1.In a bowl, combine the soy sauce, brown sugar, olive oil and garlic.

2.Rinse the tenderloin and pat dry with paper towels, then slice it into approximately 1½-inch pieces — about the same width as your bacon.

3.Place the sliced pork in a large zipper baggie and add the marinade. Squeeze out the excess air and seal the baggie. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or up to overnight.

4.Preheat the oven to 425°F.

5.Cut the bacon slices in half. Remove the pork from the marinade and wrap a half of a bacon slice around each one.

6.Arrange the pork medallions on a foil-lined baking sheet and roast 15-20 minutes or until the bacon is browned and crispy and the pork is fully cooked.
