Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Pork Tenderloin

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Season the pork tenderloin with salt and black pepper. Wrap the bacon slices around the tenderloin, securing them with toothpicks if necessary.

  2. 2

    Grill the Pork

    Place the wrapped tenderloin on the grill and cook for about 20-25 minutes, turning occasionally, until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C). Let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Asparagus

    Toss the asparagus with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Grill alongside the pork for about 8-10 minutes, until tender and slightly charred.

  4. 4

    Make the Mascarpone Polenta

    Cook the polenta according to package instructions. Stir in mascarpone cheese until creamy. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

  5. 5

    Prepare the Cipollini Onion Gastrique

    In a small saucepan, sauté the cipollini onions in olive oil until caramelized. Add balsamic vinegar and honey, cooking until the mixture thickens slightly.

  6. 6

    Assemble the Dish

    On a plate, place a serving of creamy mascarpone polenta, top with grilled asparagus, sliced pork tenderloin, and drizzle with cipollini onion gastrique. Garnish with fresh arugula.
