Bacon Brown Sugar Pork Tenderloin

• total time: 1 hour 32 minutes

Ingredients

6 strips of bacon 🥓

1 teaspoon garlic powder 🧄

1 pork tenderloin 🐖

1 tablespoon olive oil 🫒

1/2 cup brown sugar 🍬

1 teaspoon salt 🧂

1/2 teaspoon black pepper 🖤

1 teaspoon onion powder 🧅

Directions

Start by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C). Get that temperature just right for a perfect roast! 🔥

In a mixing bowl, combine the brown sugar, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Stir until well mixed, creating a fragrant blend! 🥄

Generously coat the pork tenderloin with the spice mix. Make sure every inch is covered, as that's where all the flavor lies! ✨

Wrap those delicious bacon strips around the tenderloin, using toothpicks if necessary to keep everything in place. It’s bacon magic! 🥓🔗

In a skillet over medium-high heat, warm the olive oil. Then sear the bacon-wrapped tenderloin on all sides until it gets a gorgeous golden-brown color. Get that sizzle going! 🍳

Now, transfer your skillet to the hot oven and let it bake for about 20-25 minutes. You want to aim for an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C) for perfectly cooked pork! ⏲️

Once out of the oven, let your masterpiece rest for a few moments. Then slice it up and serve it with pride. Enjoy every delicious bite! 🍽️
