directions

  • Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
  • Add olive oil and butter to a 10- or 11-inch skillet and set heat to medium-high. When butter melts, add mushrooms, onion, tomatoes, and olives; saute for 5 to 6 minutes until mushrooms are softened.
  • Remove from heat; stir in the cheese and dried oregano until well combined.
  • Butterfly each tenderloin by slitting lengthwise, cutting to but not through the other side. Place each between 2 sheets of heavy-duty plastic wrap; pound with a meat mallet or a small heavy skillet. Thickness should be approximately 1/4- to 1/2-inch.
  • Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
  • Spread mushroom mixture on one side of each tenderloin, leaving about a 1/2-inch border. Roll up tenderloin, enclosing the filling inside.
  • Place with the seams facing down in a roasting pan. Bake, uncovered, for 15 minutes.
  • Reduce heat to 400 degrees and bake an additional 15 to 20 minutes or until meat reaches at least 160 degrees on an instant-read thermometer.
  • Remove tenderloins from oven and allow to cool for 5 minutes before slicing.
