Why is pork tenderloin a good meat to eat?

Pork tenderloin is lean, healthy meat that is perfect for weeknight meals. It’s low in fat and calories, and it’s also a good source of protein. Plus, pork tenderloin is delicious and easy to prepare. So if you’re looking for a quick and healthy dinner option, this Bacon Wrapped Pork

Do I have to cook this on a sheet pan?

No, you don’t have to cook this on a sheet pan. However, I find that baking and roasting are the healthiest ways to cook meat, and using a sheet pan is an easy way to achieve even cooking. If you don’t have a sheet pan, you can use any baking dish or roasting pan that will fit your pork loin.

Can I make this in the Instant Pot or Air Fryer?

Yes, you can make this Bacon Wrapped Pork Loin Sheet Pan Dinner in the Instant Pot or Air Fryer. Just adjust the cooking time and temperature according to the instructions for your appliance.

For the Instant Pot, I would suggest wrapping the pork in bacon and cooking it on high pressure for 12 minutes. For the Air Fryer, I would suggest cooking the pork at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for 20 minutes.

What do I serve with this?

This Bacon Wrapped Pork Loin Sheet Pan Dinner is perfect on its own, as we include both potatoes and green beans!

How do I store the leftovers?

If you have leftovers, I would suggest storing them in an airtight container in the fridge. The pork will keep for up to four days, and the potatoes and green beans will keep for up to two days before they get mushy.

How do I reheat it?

If you want to reheat the pork, I would suggest microwaving it in a microwave-safe container for two to three minutes. If you want to reheat the potatoes and green beans, I would suggest microwaving them in a microwave-safe bowl for two to three minutes.

Can I make this with Turkey Breast?

Yes, you can make this Sheet Pan Dinner with turkey breast. Just adjust the cooking time and temperature according to the instructions a little bit as the turkey tends to be dryer.

The same vegetables should work as well but I would switch out the peppers for cranberries and onions, and the potatoes for diced sweet potatoes.

How to make our Bacon Wrapped Pork Loin

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees.

Rinse the pork, pat it dry, and place it on a work surface.

Rub the garlic, salt, and pepper over the tenderloin.

Take the bacon strips and wrap the tenderloin with them, it will take about 8 strips.

Cup your potatoes into small slices, trim the edges of the green beans and slice the peppers into small slices.

Place all of the potatoes and vegetables in a bowl and toss in olive oil

Secure the pork by having the edges of bacon are on the bottom.

Cover the baking sheet with parchment paper, then place the pork on the baking sheet with the bacon edges side down.

In a large bowl, toss the cut-up potatoes, bell peppers, green beans in olive oil.

Add salt & pepper (to taste) to the vegetables.

Place the vegetable mix around the pork tenderloin on the sheet pan.

Roast in the oven for 40 minutes, make sure the temperature is correct with a meat thermometer.

Let it sit for about 10 minutes before cutting the pork tenderloin into slices for serving so the juices don’t run out, but reabsorb into the meat.
