  • 1 green bell pepper, chopped
  • 375 g (1 ½ cups) grated Mozzarella cheese
  • 150 g pizza sauce
  • 30 ml ( 2 tbsp ) olive oil
  • Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
  • Optional: Green olives, chopped onions

instructions

  1. Cut pork tenderloins lengthwise, making sure not to cut all the way through so you can create a pouch in the centre, open like a book, cover with plastic wrap and flatten with a rolling pin. Refrigerate.
  2. Heat a frying pan with the olive oil, add the mushrooms and peppers and cook, stirring, for two minutes. Add the pepperoni and cook for 3 minutes, remove from the heat.
  3. In a bowl, combine the mixture with the pizza sauce and grated cheese.
  4. Preheat oven to 375° F (190° C).
  5. Remove tenderloins from refrigerator and place on work surface. Spread filling in center of tenderloins and roll up tightly.
  6. Tie tenderloins with butcher's twine.
  7. In a skillet over medium-high heat, add olive oil.
  8. Place pork tenderloins in skillet and sear on each side for a few minutes.
  9. Transfer the pork tenderloins to an ovenproof dish and bake for about 15 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the meat reaches 145°F.
  10. Remove from oven and let cool for a few minutes, then slice and serve.
