Ingredients:

1 pork fillet
200g
3 bacon strips
72g
1 tbsp butter
16g
2 garlic cloves
6g
1 onion
160g
1/2 cup bread crumbs
44g
2 tbsp lemon juice
30g
1 tsp dried oregano
5g
1 tbsp rosemary
16g

Instructions:

1. Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. Prepare the Pork Fillet:
- Butterfly the pork fillet by slicing it lengthwise, being careful not to cut all the way through. Open the fillet like a book and flatten it slightly with a meat mallet to ensure even thickness.
3. Prepare the Stuffing:
- In a medium skillet, melt the butter over medium heat.
- Add the chopped onion and cook until it becomes translucent, about 5 minutes.
- Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute until fragrant.
- Remove the skillet from heat. Stir in the bread crumbs, lemon juice, dried oregano, and fresh rosemary. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly combined.
4. Stuff the Pork Fillet:
- Lay the butterflied pork fillet on a clean surface.
- Spread the stuffing mixture evenly across the inside of the fillet.
- Carefully roll up the fillet, starting from one end, to enclose the stuffing.
5. Wrap with Bacon:
- Lay the bacon strips out on a cutting board, slightly overlapping each strip.
- Place the rolled pork fillet at one end of the bacon strips and roll the fillet across the bacon, wrapping it completely.
6. Secure the Fillet:
- Use kitchen twine to tie the rolled fillet at 1-2 inch intervals to keep it secure and prevent the stuffing from falling out.
7. Bake the Pork Fillet:
- Place the bacon-wrapped pork fillet on a baking tray lined with parchment paper or in a roasting pan.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the pork reaches 145°F (63°C) and the bacon is crispy and golden brown.
8. Rest and Serve:
- Remove the pork from the oven and let it rest for about 5 minutes.
- Slice the pork fillet into medallions and serve hot.

Tips:

- Make sure to evenly pound the pork fillet to ensure it cooks uniformly and is easy to roll with the stuffing.

- Cook the bacon strips slightly before wrapping them around the pork fillet to ensure they become crispy after baking.

- Don’t overstuff the pork fillet; spread the stuffing evenly to make the rolling process smoother.

- Use kitchen twine or toothpicks to secure the bacon-wrapped pork fillet and prevent it from unrolling during cooking.

- Let the pork fillet rest for a few minutes after baking before slicing to allow the juices to redistribute, ensuring a moist and tender bite.
