Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 400°F. Season 1 lb pork tenderloin with 1 tsp salt and 1/2 tsp black pepper. Wrap the tenderloin tightly with 6 strips of bacon, overlapping slightly.
  2. Step 2: Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in an ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat until hot. Sear the bacon-wrapped pork tenderloin on all sides for 2-3 minutes per side until the bacon is browned and crisp.
  3. Step 3: Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and roast the pork for 15-20 minutes until an internal temperature of 145°F is reached. Remove pork from skillet and tent with foil.
  4. Step 4: In the same skillet, melt 2 tbsp unsalted butter over medium heat. Add 8 oz sliced button mushrooms and sauté for 5 minutes until browned and softened.
  5. Step 5: Add 3 minced garlic cloves and 1 tsp fresh thyme leaves, cooking for 1 minute until fragrant.
  6. Step 6: Pour in 3/4 cup heavy cream, stirring and simmering for 4-5 minutes until the sauce thickens and coats the back of a spoon.
  7. Step 7: Slice the pork tenderloin and serve topped with the creamy mushroom sauce.
