Preparation Steps
- Preheat the oven to 425°F.
- Combine crushed garlic, lemon juice, mustard, olive oil, and pepper; mix well.
- Cut a lengthwise slit down the center of the tenderloin to within 0.5-inch of the bottom (careful not to cut all the way through).
- Open tenderloin so it lies flat. On each half, make another, lengthwise slit down the center to within 0.5-inch of bottom; cover with plastic wrap. Flatten to 0.25-inch thickness with a mallet.
- Remove plastic wrap; spread 0.5 of the garlic/Dijon mixture on the inside of the pork. Layer the cheese, spinach, sun dried tomatoes and prosciutto on top, press down gently.
- Roll up pork jelly-roll style, starting with a long side. Tie the roast at 1.5-inch to 2-inch intervals with kitchen string.
- Season lightly with salt, and remaining garlic/Dijon mixture. Place on a rack in a shallow baking pan.
- Bake, uncovered, at 425°F for 25-30 minutes or until a meat thermometer reads 160°. Place under the broiler to brown the top for 5 minutes, then transfer to a serving platter or cutting board.
- Let stand 10 minutes before removing string and slicing. Slice in 4 pieces.
