Stuffed tenderloin is one my Mexican families favorite dishes. We try to prepare it for special occasions, like our Sunday reunions or birthday parties. Stuffed tenderloin is a simply prepared dish and will make your dining table look wonderful. You can fill it with nearly anything, but in my house we generally use a mix of garlic, ham and herbs. This time I added raisins to give it a light sweetness. Serve with green salad and mashed potatoes.

Ingredients

  • 1 (about 1 lb) Pork loin
  • 6 sprigs parsley, washed and finely chopped with the stems and everything
  • 5 garlic finely chopped
  • 4 slices of ham finely chopped
  • 1/2 cup raisins
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Salt and pepper
  • 1 1/4 cups beef broth, divided
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 1 tablespoon butter

Directions

  •  
    1
    Clean the pork loin and use a very sharp knife to make a slit across the center from side to side, careful not to cut the walls.
  •  
    2
    Pre-heat the oven to 450°F.
  •  
    3
    Mix parsley, garlic, ham and raisins. Fill the center of the entire spine with this mixture.
  •  
    4
    Pour a tablespoon of olive oil over the back and use your hands to thoroughly grease it. Season with salt and pepper.
  •  
    5
    Heat a frying pan and fry the meat about a minute on each side. This will seal and keep the juices inside the meat. Place the meat in a baking dish, add 1/4 cup beef broth and bake in the oven.
  •  
    6
    Bake at 450°F for 15 minutes, lower the temperature to 350°F and bake for 15 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 155°F.
  •  
    7
    Remove from oven, remove the meat from the dish, cover with foil and let the meat rest for 10 minutes.
  •  
    8
    Meanwhile, pour the cup of beef broth in the dish where the meat was baked and stir until the meat juices integrate well. Empty in a saucepan and heat on the stove on high. Add the tablespoon of butter. Dissolve a tablespoon of cornstarch in three tablespoons of cold water and pour in the broth. Stir constantly until the sauce thickens.
  •  
    9
    Slice the meat and pour some sauce over it. Serve immediately.
