How to make Apricot Glazed Bacon Wrapped Cajun Pork Tenderloin
Step 1: Mix the Cajun seasoning and brown sugar. Rub this on the pork tenderloin, then wrap the tenderloin in bacon.
Step 2: Add the bacon-wrapped pork tenderloin to an oven-safe skillet. Cook over medium heat for about 10 to 15 minutes until all sides are brown.
Step 3: In a preheated 400 degrees F or 200 degrees C oven, transfer the pan and roast the tenderloin for about 10 to 15 minutes until the internal temperature of the meat reads 140 degrees F. Near the end of cooking, brush the pork with the apricot preserves and mustard. When done, remove from the oven and allow to rest for at least 5 minutes, covered.
