Description

This pork tenderloin wrapped in bacon is seasoned with fresh herbs and coated in a brown sugar glaze that gives a sweet-n-salty flavor to each bite.

Ingredients

1 (2 pound) pork tenderloin
2 sprigs fresh rosemary, leaves stripped
1 tablespoon fresh thyme
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
6 slices thick-cut bacon
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1/2 cup packed brown sugar

Directions

1 Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2 Season tenderloin with rosemary leaves, thyme, salt, and pepper. Wrap bacon around tenderloin and secure with toothpicks. Sprinkle garlic powder over bacon, then pack brown sugar around tenderloin.
3 Cook in the preheated oven until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center reads at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C), 35 to 40 minutes.
