I’m all about cooking with real, all-natural ingredients and Smithfield Marinated Fresh Pork provides just that and today we will cook Grilled Garlic Herb Pork Loin. I’ve tried every flavor and I can’t pick a favorite, they’re all delicious. For this recipe, I am using the Smithfield Roasted Garlic & Herb Marinated Fresh Pork Loin Filet, but you can use any pork loin filet that you can find. Let’s make this Grilled Garlic Herb Pork Loin.
Step 1:
Gather your ingredients and get to chopping. This Grilled Garlic Herb Pork Loin is easy to whip up and can be made in 30 minutes or less.
Step 2:
In a large skillet over medium heat, add 1 Tbsp oil with chopped bacon and cook until browned (3-4 minutes). Add diced mushrooms and diced onion, sauté until soft.
Step 3:
Add spinach, allow it to cook for 5 minutes. Season with salt and black pepper, chopped parsley, and minced garlic.
Step 4:
Take your Smithfield Marinated Roasted Garlic & Herb Fresh Pork Loin Filet, cut a slit all the way down the long end of your pork loin, making sure not to cut all the way through. Open pork loin up like a book, cover with a sheet of plastic wrap and pound with the flat side of a meat mallet until 1/2″ thick without tearing through the meat. Be careful.
Step 5:
Once you have the correct thickness, you will spread the mushroom, onion, and spinach mixture over the surface of the pork loin, leaving ½” at the borders.
Step 6:
Roll tightly starting with the long end (should look like a hot dog) and secure with Butcher twine or toothpicks. If using toothpicks, make sure to create a flat cooking surface by poking the toothpicks through parallel to each other. Season with salt and pepper.
Step 7:
Preheat the grill to high. On medium-high heat, cook the tenderloin for 4 minutes and then rotate it 90 degrees and cook for another 4 minutes and then flip and cook for another 4 minutes and rotate 90 degrees and cook for another 4 minutes.
Brown other sides for 1 minute each to make sure the tenderloin is browned on all sides.
Step 8:
Remove from grill and let rest for 10 minutes. Cut into rings and sprinkle with parsley.
