Pork Filet Mignon With Onions Recipes

JAMAICAN JERK PORK FILET MIGNON

Steps:

• To make Jerk Seasoning, mix all spices together and set aside.
• Preheat oven to 400°F.
• Remove fat cap and silver skin ( I used a filet knife).
• Cut loin across grain into 3/4" to 1" filet mignons.
• Wrap a slice of bacon around circumference of filets, secure with toothpick(s).
• Sprinkle and rub Jerk Seasoning on both sides of filets. Left over seasoning can be stored in an air tight container.
• Coat iron skillet (or other oven ready pan) with olive oil (spray on pan coating can be used instead) to high heat on stove.
• Fry both sides of the filets until well browned (about 2 minutes per side).
• Put browned filets and skillet into preheated oven.
• Bake 20 minutes or until internal temp of filet is 160°F.
• Remove from pan and let stand 5 minutes.
• Garnish with 1 Tbsp of fruit compote per serving.

PORK LOIN WITH CARAMELIZED ONIONS

Steps:

• In a large skillet, cook onion and sugar in oil over medium-low heat until onion is tender and golden brown, about 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• Place the pork in a 13 x 9 x 2 baking dish coated with nonstick cooking spray.
• Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• Top with onion mixture.
• Bake, uncovered, at 350 degrees for 40-45 minutes or until a meat thermometer reads 160 degrees.
• Let stand for 5 minutes before slicing.

BACON WRAPPED PORK MEDALLIONS

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Place the bacon in a large, oven-safe skillet, and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until lightly browned and still flexible, 6 to 7 minutes. Drain the bacon slices on a paper towel-lined plate. Remove any excess bacon grease from the skillet. Combine garlic powder, seasoning salt, basil, and oregano in a small bowl. Set aside.
• Wrap the pork tenderloin with the bacon strips securing with 1 or 2 toothpicks per strip of bacon. Slice the tenderloin between each bacon strip to create the medallions. Dip both sides of the medallions in seasoning mix. Melt butter and oil together in the same skillet over medium-high heat. Cook each medallion for 4 minutes on each side.
• Place skillet into the preheated oven and bake until the pork is no longer pink in the center, 17 to 20 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).
