Description

A delicious juicy cajun-seasoned pork tenderloin wrapped in bacon and glazed with an apricot and dijon sauce! Absolute bliss and pork perfection!


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 1/2 pound pork tenderloin
  • 1 tablespoon Cajun seasoning
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 6 strips bacon
  • 3 tablespoons apricot preserves
  • 1 tablespoon grainy Dijon mustard

Instructions

  1. Rub the pork tenderloin with the mixture of the Cajun seasoning and brown sugar and wrap it up in the bacon.
  2. Heat an oven-safe skillet over medium heat, add the bacon-wrapped pork tenderloin, and cook until it is browned on all sides, about 10-15 minutes.
  3. Transfer the pan to a preheated 400F/200C oven, and roast until the pork reaches 140F, about 10-15 minutes, brushing on the mixture of the apricot preserves and mustard near the end before setting aside it to rest, covered, for 5 minutes.
