Bacon-Wrapped Pork Tenderloin

Wrap pork tenderloin in bacon and bake for an easy weeknight main dish.
Ingredients
1   (1-lb.) pork tenderloin

 1   teaspoon  steak seasoning

3    bacon slices, cut in half crosswise

Directions

1. 1. Preheat oven to 425°. Remove silver skin from pork tenderloin, leaving a thin layer of fat covering the pork. Sprinkle seasoning over pork. Wrap pork with bacon slices, and secure with wooden picks. Place pork on a lightly greased wire rack in an aluminum foil-lined roasting pan.
2. 2. Bake at 425° for 25 minutes or until a meat thermometer inserted into thickest portion registers 155°. Increase oven temperature to broil. Broil 5 inches from heat 3 to 5 minutes or until bacon is crisp. Remove from oven; cover pork with foil, and let stand 10 minutes or until thermometer registers 160°.
3. Note: For testing purposes only, we used McCormick Grill Mates Montreal Steak Seasoning.

  Note:Go ahead and season the other tenderloin in the package with your favorite spice blend. Wrap and freeze to jump-start another meal.Credit: Photo by Beth Dreiling Hontzas; Styling: Lisa Powell Bailey.
