- 1 pork tenderloin (about 1.5 lbs), butterflied
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 cups fresh spinach
- 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
- 1/2 cup cranberry sauce (plus extra for serving)
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon fresh rosemary, chopped
- Butcher’s twine, for tying
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a skillet, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium heat. Add garlic and sauté for 30 seconds, then add spinach. Cook until wilted. Remove from heat.
- Lay the butterflied pork tenderloin flat and season both sides with salt, pepper, and rosemary.
- Spread wilted spinach evenly over the pork, sprinkle with feta, and spoon cranberry sauce across the center.
- Carefully roll the tenderloin and secure with butcher’s twine at 2-inch intervals.
- Heat remaining oil in an oven-safe skillet and sear the pork on all sides until browned.
- Transfer the skillet to the oven and roast for 25–30 minutes, or until internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C).
- Rest 5 minutes before slicing. Serve topped with extra cranberry sauce.
Notes
- Let the pork rest before slicing to retain juices.
- Use fresh or canned cranberry sauce based on preference.
- Substitute goat cheese for feta for a creamier filling.
