Ingredients

  • 3 cloves garlic (crushed)
  • 2 tbsp lemon juice (freshly squeezed)
  • 2 tsp Dijon mustard
  • 1 tsp olive oil
  • ¼ tsp fresh ground black pepper
  • 1 pound pork tenderloin
  • 1 ½ ounces part skim mozzarella cheese
  • 2 cups fresh baby spinach
  • 2 tbsp chopped sun dried tomatoes
  • 1 ounce thin sliced prosciutto
  • salt and fresh cracked pepper (to taste)

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Combine crushed garlic, lemon juice, mustard, olive oil, and pepper; mix well.
  2. Cut a lengthwise slit down the center of the tenderloin to within ½- inch of bottom (careful not to cut all the way through).
  3. Open tenderloin so it lies flat. On each half, make another, lengthwise slit down the center to within ½-inch of bottom; cover with plastic wrap. Flatten to ¼-in. thickness with a mallet.
  4. Remove plastic wrap; spread ½ of the garlic/Dijon mixture on the inside of the pork. Layer the cheese, spinach, sun dried tomatoes and proscuitto on top, press down gently.
  5. Roll up pork jelly-roll style, starting with a long side. Tie the roast at 1½-inch to 2-inch intervals with kitchen string.
  6. Season lightly with salt, and remaining garlic/Dijon mixture. Place on a rack in a shallow baking pan.
  7. Bake, uncovered, at 425° for 25-30 minutes or until a meat thermometer reads 160°. Place under the broiler to brown the top for 5 minutes, then transfer to a serving platter or cutting board.
  8. Let stand 10 minutes before removing string and slicing. Slice in 8 pieces.
