Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Pat dry 1.5 lbs pork tenderloin and season all sides with 1 tsp garlic powder, 1 tsp smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper.
  2. Step 2: Spread 3 tbsp Dijon mustard evenly over the pork tenderloin surface.
  3. Step 3: Wrap 8 bacon slices around the tenderloin, slightly overlapping to cover the meat fully.
  4. Step 4: Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Place pork tenderloin seam side down and sear for 3-4 minutes until bacon starts to crisp.
  5. Step 5: Flip tenderloin and sear the other side for 3 minutes, then transfer skillet to the preheated oven.
  6. Step 6: Roast for 15-20 minutes until internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C).
  7. Step 7: Remove from oven and let rest for 5 minutes before slicing. Serve with pan juices spooned over the top for a rich, flavorful finish.
