Incredibly easy to make Prosciutto Wrapped Pork Tenderloin – With only a few ingredients and no expertise required, this dish will become a favorite!
The easiest pork tenderloin you will ever make! No searing the meat prior to cooking, no tying little strings….just baste with a simple honey dijon sauce, wrap, bake and eat! You are soooo gonna impress your family and friends with this one!
The honey dijon sauce does double duty. It flavors the meat as well as keeping the prosciutto adhered to the tenderloin, so tying little annoying strings is not necessary. I don’t know about you, but these chubby little fingers hate that string.
How to make Prosciutto Wrapped Pork Tenderloin –
To start, lay out a piece of parchment paper, foil or even plastic wrap will do. Now place your prosciutto, overlapping slightly, making it the same length as your pork loin.
Place the pork on the prosciutto and brush with half of your honey dijon sauce.
Now simply lift up the parchment edge and your pork tenderloin will wrap itself up in the prosciutto! It’s a miracle I tell ya!
Roll it rather tightly as the pork tenderloin will shrink while roasting and you want it to adhere to the pork.
Brush the top of the prosciutto with more honey dijon sauce. Pop in the oven for 25 minutes or so, and the crowd goes crazy with your cooking super stardom! Your family and friends are amazed and you win triple big hugs at dinner time! Go you!
What temperature should pork tenderloin be cooked to be done?
- In a 400 degree oven, your pork will be perfectly done when your meat thermometer reaches 145 degrees. Pork tenderloins vary in size. We used 2 pound as our standard and it cooked for about 30 minutes before reaching 145 degrees.
NOTE: Turn this Prosciutto Wrapped Pork Tenderloin into a simple sheet pan dinner by tossing some cubed sweet potatoes and brussell sprouts around the pork! One pan easy!

If you really wanted to make them go crazy with food delight. I’d serve this with my Cheesy Potatoes Au Gratin! Don’t be fooled by this dish’s fancy pants appeal. It’s just sliced potatoes standing up at attention with a simple cream sauce!
To easy and healthy dinners that are so pretty!

I tried this recipe last night, and it was an absolute hit! The prosciutto added such great flavor to the tenderloin, and the cooking instructions were spot on. Can’t wait to make it again! Thanks for sharing!
Mylene says
Trying this tonight hope it works, like you did thanks for sharing your recipe please have a great night
Jan Hollis says
This looked a lot better than it tasted. I salted and peppered the tenderloin before adding the Dijon and honey, then wrapped it in premium prosciutto but the pork had only a tad of flavor. I mean, you’d think the dish would have massive flavor but it was very very mild. More like eating a vaguely-salted pork ternderloin.

Loved this recipe and it makes a great presentation. We added some of our favorite spices before wrapping in prosciutto and look forward to making again for guests.

Your recipe talks about pork tenderloin but you video shows using pork loin. These are two different cuts of meat. It is no wonder that one of the comments discussed over cooking
Kathi & Rachel says
George- we wrote the recipe, and filmed the video ourselves…They are both pork tenderloins in the photos and the video. We are aware of the 2 different cuts of meat known as ‘pork tenderloin’, and ‘pork loin’. Have a nice day!

Hi ladies, thank you for sharing wonderful recipes, directions, pics and videos providing ideas for the dreaded question…….what to make for dinner tonight?? I’m hosting a dinner party the 22nd & as lovely as the cheesy potatoes au-gratin look, I was hoping you have an impressive “healthy option for a side dish or two” in your apron pocket or up your sleeve? I will be making those potatoes soon ~ no doubt about it. My stepsons watch their weight more than I do ~ their loss LOL!!. Should you get this question in time, I thank you in advance.

Jennifer says
Any tips for doing this on the grill?
LaughingSpatula.com says
Hi Jennifer! I would secure the prosciutto to the pork with toothpicks so it doesn’t unravel when turning. Should be delicious!
