List of Ingredients




2 whole pork tenderloins, about 1 pound each

STUFFING:
2 tablespoons butter
1 (8 oz.) carton fresh mushrooms, chopped
1/2 cup sliced green onions
1 (6 oz.) package long-grain and wild rice mix, cooked according to package directions and cooled
1 cup chopped pecans, toasted
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley

TO SEASON PORK:
2 teaspoons dried Italian seasoning
1/2 teaspoon salt

SAUCE:
1 (10 oz.) container refrigerated low-fat Alfredo sauce OR refrigerated Alfredo sauce
3 tablespoons Chardonnay OR other dry white wine

Recipe



Heat oven to 425 degrees F.

Cut lengthwise slit in each pork tenderloin, cutting to but not through the other side. Set pork aside.

PREPARE THE STUFFING:
Melt butter in large saucepan over medium heat. Add mushrooms and green onions; cook until tender.

Remove from heat. Stir in cooked long grain and wild rice mix, pecans and parsley. Set aside 3/4 cup of the rice mixture. Spoon remaining rice mixture into 1 1/2-quart casserole; cover and set aside.

STUFF AND ROAST THE PORK:
Divide 3/4 cup rice mixture between slits in pork tenderloins, spreading evenly in slits. Close slits; secure with toothpicks.

Stir together Italian seasoning and salt in small bowl. Sprinkle evenly over top of pork tenderloins. Place pork tenderloins on rack in shallow roasting pan.

Roast tenderloins, uncovered, for 25-30 minutes until internal temperature is 160 degrees F. Bake casserole of rice mixture alongside tenderloins.

PREPARE THE SAUCE:
Meanwhile, for sauce, combine Alfredo sauce and Chardonnay in medium saucepan. Cook and stir over low heat until bubbly.

TO SERVE:
Spoon rice mixture onto serving platter. Remove toothpicks from tenderloins. Cut pork tenderloins into 1-inch-thick pieces; arrange on rice mixture on platter. Serve sauce with pork and rice mixture.
