    Saturated with the flavors of rosemary and sage, these pork tenderloins are a quick interpretation of the popular porchetta found throughout Tuscany and are served at room temperature. Leftover pork can be used in sandwiches or salads.

    Rosemary-Sage Pork Tenderloin with Pancetta and Fried Capers Wine-pairing-icon-red

    Wine Pairing

    This pairs well with smooth, medium-bodied red wines like the Rosa Del Golfo Scaliere Negroamaro, Salento from our Wine Club.

    Directions:

    In a small bowl, combine the olive oil, rosemary, sage, fennel seeds, kosher salt and pepper and mix well. Using the tip of a sharp paring knife, make 8 crosswise incisions 1/2 inch deep evenly spaced along the length of each tenderloin. Insert a garlic quarter into each incision. Rub the rosemary-sage mixture over the tenderloins. Wrap 2 slices of pancetta around each of the tenderloins in a spiral pattern. Place the tenderloins, side by side, in a baking dish. Cover tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 24 hours or up to 2 days.

    Remove the pork from the refrigerator and let stand at room temperature for about 1 hour before roasting. Preheat an oven to 375°F.

    Transfer the tenderloins to a small roasting pan and pat dry with paper towels. Roast until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part registers 150°F, about 30 minutes. Let cool to room temperature. Remove the pancetta slices and finely chop them. Set aside. (The pork can be prepared up to this point 1 day in advance. If doing so, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate along with the chopped pancetta until 30 minutes before serving.)

    To fry the capers, in a bowl, toss the capers with the cornmeal until lightly coated. In a nonstick fry pan over high heat, warm the olive oil. When it is hot, drop in the capers and fry until golden, 1 to 2 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer to a plate lined with a paper towel to drain. Lightly sprinkle the capers with sea salt.

    To serve, thinly slice the pork and arrange on a serving platter. Scatter the fried capers and pancetta over the pork slices. Serves 8.
