Number Of Ingredients 10

1/2 teaspoon seasoned salt
1/2 teaspoon garlic pepper
1/2 teaspoon dried marjoram leaves
1/4 teaspoon ground sage
1 pork tenderloin (1 pound)
36 slices (from 10-ounce loaf) baguette-style French bread, 1/4 to 1/2 inch thick
1/4 cup Dijon mustard
3/4 cup (from 8.5-ounce jar) apple-cranberry chutney
1/3 cup crumbled blue cheese
Fresh marjoram leaves

Steps:

Heat oven to 425°F. Mix seasoned salt, garlic pepper, marjoram and sage in small bowl. Rub mixture over pork. Place pork in shallow roasting pan. Insert meat thermometer so tip is in thickest part of pork. Bake uncovered 20 to 25 minutes or until thermometer reads 155°F. Cover pork with aluminum foil and let stand 10 to 15 minutes until thermometer reads 160°F.
Meanwhile, reduce oven temperature to 375°F. Place bread slices in ungreased jelly roll pan, 15 1/2x10 1/2x1 inch. Bake about 5 minutes or until crisp; cool.
Cut hot pork into very thin slices (or cool pork if desired). Spread each bread slice with about 1/4 teaspoon mustard. Top each with a thin slice of pork, 1 teaspoon chutney, about 1/2 teaspoon cheese and marjoram leaves.

Herbed Pork Tenderloins image

Provided by Ina Garten

Categories main-dish

Time 50m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 pork tenderloins (2 1/2 to 3 pounds total)
1 tablespoon minced fresh rosemary leaves
1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme leaves
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Good olive oil
10 to 12 slices prosciutto

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
Place the tenderloins on a sheet pan and pat them dry with paper towels. Combine the rosemary, thyme, 1 tablespoon salt, and 1 teaspoon pepper in a small bowl. Rub the tenderloins all over with 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Sprinkle all sides with the herb mixture. If there is a thinner "tail," fold it underneath so the tenderloin is an even thickness throughout. Wrap the tenderloins completely with a single layer of prosciutto. (I place the prosciutto sideways with the ends wrapping under the tenderloins.) Tie in several places with kitchen string to hold the prosciutto and the "tail" in place.
Roast for 20 to 25 minutes, until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the middle of the end of the tenderloin reads 140 degrees F for medium rare and 145 degrees F for medium. Cover the tenderloins tightly with aluminum foil and allow to rest at room temperature for 15 minutes. Slice diagonally in thick slices and serve warm with apple chutney.
