Italian Pork Tenderloin

A rich flavor is imparted to this pork tenderloin meal with fresh sage, sun-dried tomatoes, prosciutto, and cream. It’s incredibly nice and easy! In the absence of prosciutto, chopped ham can be utilized.

Ingredients

  1. 2 tablespoons olive oil

Loved it! Used it for dinner party, as a “base recipe.” My modifications were: medallions (rather than strips), tons more prosciutto, garlic, chopped kale, oyster mushrooms, splash of sherry and finished with a knob of butter….delictable! We chose to serve it over parslied rice, along side brussel sprouts. It was beautiful! Thank you, to the moon and back, for sharing!

I really did some changes based on what I had, but I used turkey tenderloin, fresh tomato, mushroom and bacon instead of Prosciutto. No cream and doubled the broth and herbs. A dash of crushed red pepper and some garlic! This was delish! and I am now a fan of Turkey tenderloin…try it!
Jamie Odonnell
I made it as per the instructions. Needed vegetables or or a stronger sauce. Something to give it a wow factor. Would have complimented a glass of wine perfectly though.
Brianna Rasmussen
Good flavor. I used a shallot instead of an onion and also added some minced garlic. Next time, I would double the sauce
Jill White
Used 1 tablespoon of dried sage and parsley,instead of fresh. Use what I have rather then spend money on what really don’t have,plus won’t make too much of a difference.
Mark Weaver
My pork ended up overdone, but the sauce was one of the best I’ve ever made! I will make the sauce alone to put on pasta.
Randall Little
A real keeper. I have done it twice for guests and they RAVED!!
Jill Garcia
Absolutely love this! Made him homemade fettuccini and roasted asparagus. Leftovers with homemade Italian bread! Organic fresh herbs a must. A home run! Doubled the sauce otherwise followed the recipe!
Christine White
This recipe is amazing. One of the best. The day I made it, I didn’t have prosciutto so I substituted with Serrano Ham. it’s drier and saltier so the end result was slightly too salty, but that was my bad (wouldn’t add additional salt next time, or just a pinch instead of three). I also substituted sun-dried tomatoes using tomato paste instead. Same measurement. Absolutely amazing, this has been added to the repertoire. I cooked with egg noddles and mixed all together on my plate. Insane.
Sara Meadows
This was very good. I read other reviews and I doubled the broth and heavy cream. I used dried parsley and sage. I also cooked the pork in the pan first because we like that grilled texture. We added spinach and mushrooms and served it with pasta. Very good
Kelly Avila
Very tasty I love the recipe only change I made was I doubled the sauce and thickened it with a bit of corn starch …. Very good Thanks for a recipe that is a nice change for pork tenderloin
Hannah Chambers
I really liked it! I added some garlic and mushrooms and doubled the cream and chicken stock because I like a lot of sauce. I served it over egg noodles and it was delicious! I also followed the advice on other reviews and removed the pork while making the sauce. It’s pretty easy to make and I will definitely do it again!
Joseph Smith
Delicious!!! I added garlic and doubled the broth and cream because I like extra sauce. I added 1.5 TB flour to thicken. Served over pasta. My husband was thrilled with this meal!!!
Timothy Ross
This is so flavorful. The only thing I change is I add mushrooms to it!
Timothy Roach
My pork tenderloin always comes out like kindling and this didn’t. It was tender, with tons of flavor. Make this, you won’t be disappointed.
Kathleen Matthews
So good! I doubled the recipe (8 people) and the only other change I made was to add 5 cloves of garlic. I served it over rice and it was a big hit with my family. Will definitely be making it again soon, maybe with chicken instead of pork for variety.
Cory Zimmerman
This is a keeper. Made it exactly as the recipe called for. Really tasty. Served the leftovers over noodles the next night. It’s going in my meal rotation.
David Clark
This was soooo good! I was kinda hesitant to make this, but my husband wanted to try it. He can’t have sun dried tomatoes so I roasted a red bell pepper…..the meal was a success! I will definitely make this again.
Miss Heather Fields
Not too much flavor. Pork stayed tender. Sauce was too watery.
Matthew Taylor
Delicious and easy, this turned out fantastic.
Edwin Mcgee
Very tasty. Like others, we doubled the sauce and added sugar. We also substituted canned coconut milk for the cream. Loved it!
