Blue Cheese Mushroom Stuffed Tenderloin Recipes

MUSHROOM STUFFED PORK TENDERLOIN

Steps:

• Start by prepping the pork. Carefully slice halfway through the middle of the tenderloin and fold it open. Then use a meat mallet to pound out the meat. Pound it until it has an even thickness, getting it as thin as you can. Season both sides generously with salt and pepper, and set aside. Heat your oven to 375 degrees. Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a dutch oven over medium heat. Once melted, add the shallot and saute for 2 minutes. Then add the garlic, mushrooms, and 1 tablespoon thyme. Season generously with salt and pepper, and let cook for 5 minutes. Then add 1 cup white wine and continue cooking until the liquid has been absorbed. Cut butcher's twine and arrange it under the pork tenderloin, it's easiest to do this before out start adding the mushrooms. I like to place the twine about every 2 inches so that nothing falls out of the pork. Add a layer of mushrooms on top of the pork, placing them in the center of the meat and not too close to the sides. Then place the blue cheese on top. (You will have mushrooms leftover - that's good!) Wrap the pork up around the mushrooms and blue cheese and tie the butcher's twine up tight. Mix one tablespoon butter, the mustard, and the remaining thyme together, then spread it over the outside of the rolled up pork tenderloin. Wipe out the dutch oven with a wet paper towel if necessary. Then heat the olive oil over high heat. Once hot, add the pork. You want to sear all sides of the meat, this will take about 2 minutes per side. Once the meat has seared, pour 1 cup white wine, 1 cup chicken broth, and the mushrooms in to the bottom of the pan. Place a lid on the dutch oven and then place it in the oven to bake. The pork needs to cook until it reaches at least 145 degrees. This will take about 15 minutes. Once a meat thermometer inserted into the pork reachest 145 degrees, remove it from the dutch oven and set it on a plate to rest. Heat the mixture of pan drippings, wine, broth, and mushrooms over a burner and let simmer and reduce for 5 minutes to create a gravy. Slice the pork tenderloin and serve with the gravy.

MUSHROOM-BLUE CHEESE TENDERLOIN

Bake, uncovered, at 425° for 45-55 minutes or until meat reaches desired doneness (for medium-rare, a thermometer should read 135°; medium, 140°; medium-well, 145°). Let stand for 10 minutes and remove twine before slicing., Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, saute mushrooms in butter until tender. Add garlic; cook 1 minute longer.

• Preheat oven to 425°. Line a roasting pan with foil. In a medium skillet, melt butter over medium-high heat. Add mushrooms and thyme; cook until golden brown, about 5 minutes. In a large bowl, stir together mushroom mixture, blue cheese, and Cornbread Stuffing. Place beef lengthwise on a cutting board, with one short end closest to you. Holding your knife parallel to the bottom of the tenderloin, make a lengthwise cut along the bottom-third of one long side, cutting to within 1/2 inch of other long side. Open meat at incision as if you were opening a book. Again, holding your knife parallel to tenderloin with the blade facing the thicker side, make another lengthwise cut into thicker side of tenderloin, cutting to within 1/2 inch of opposite side. Again, open meat at incision as if you were opening a book. Using the flat side of a meat mallet or a rolling pin, flatten any thicker portions of meat until you have an even thickness throughout (do not flatten meat any thinner than 1/2 inch thick). Spread stuffing mixture to within 1/2 inch of edges of beef. Starting at one short side, roll up meat and stuffing. Tie tenderloin together at 1-inch intervals with butcher's twine. Brush with oil, and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Place seam side down in prepared pan. Bake until a meat thermometer inserted in thickest portion registers 145° for medium-rare, about 45 minutes. Loosely cover with foil, and let stand for 15 minutes before slicing.
• In a medium skillet, melt butter over medium-high heat. Add onion and celery; cook until vegetables are tender, about 5 minutes. Add garlic; cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.

BLUE-CHEESE-STUFFED FILLETS

Steps:

• In a food processor, pulse butter until whipped, and add salt and cheese. Pulse again just until incorporated. Dollop the compound butter towards 1 side of a piece of natural parchment paper or plastic wrap. Roll into a log, twisting opposite ways on both ends to create a tightly wrapped log of butter. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour to set. (Can be stored up to 1 week in the refrigerator and up to 1 month in the freezer.) This could be made into 2 logs, as you will only need half this recipe for the steaks.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
• Once butter log is set, slice 1/2 the whole log into 1/4-inch disks. Cut a slit in the side of each fillet, and stuff with a butter disk. Tie each fillet with kitchen twine to keep it shape and sprinkle pepper each side.
• Add the olive oil to a large oven-proof skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, sear each fillet until brown on both sides, about 3 to 5 minutes per side. Move skillet into the preheated oven to cook to desired doneness. Put another disk of the compound butter on top of each fillet just about 3 minutes before removing from oven, to just begin to melt but not melted completely. Remove from the oven and place on serving plates. Eat and enjoy!

• Cover the pork with plastic wrap; pound with the flat side of a meat mallet until about 1/2 inch thick, starting from the middle and working outward.
