Pork Tenderloin Roulade w/ Creamy Dill Sauce

I'm not quite sure what inspired me to make this dish. From my experience, I've realized that anything that's stuffed with anything is usually pretty good (i.e. sausages, kolaches, jalapenos, egg rolls, etc.). This pork tenderloin is encrusted with ground coriander seeds, salt, and pepper and stuffed with broccolini and Crimini mushrooms -why Crimini you ask? It was left over from the Sea Bass dish I posted earlier, no point in wasting food right?

If you've read any of my post that has any type of cream sauce, you'll notice that it's pretty much the same thing (heavy cream, butter, Parmesan cheese) but today I added freshly chopped dill. I didn't use garlic and shallots in this sauce as I really wanted to accentuate the dill in the sauce.

Ingredients:

1 pound pork tenderloin
1/2 pound broccollini (roughly chop the crowns and julienne the stems)
1 cup Crimini mushrooms (roughly chopped)
1 cup bread crumbs
1 cup heavy cream
3/4 stick unsalted butter
1/8 cup Parmesan cheese (grated)
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
Several sprigs fresh dill (finely minced)
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil

Directions:

For this dish, I suggest starting with the pork first as it'll take a while to prepare.

First, saute the broccollini and mushrooms in 1/4 stick of butter for about 5 minutes on medium heat. Add your bread crumbs and stir the mixture thoroughly. Once the ingredients have been mixed thoroughly, turn off the heat but keep the lid on the pan. There's no need to cook the vegetables all the way through since they'll be cooking again.

To make the roulade, you'll have to either unroll your pork tenderloin or butterfly it. Butterflying is easier and the meat will be a thicker cut. Unrolling it is prettier but the rolling process becomes very delicate because of the thinness of the meat. I butterflied mine so that the meat will retain moisture and in the end will be less dry - don't forget, we're working with a pretty lean piece of meat here. Once you've decided on your method, you'll get your vegetable mixture and spread it on top of the tenderloin. Carefully bring the ends together (or roll from end to end) and tie one end off with butcher's twine, continue tying the tenderloin until you've reached the other end. Once completed, using the dry rub of coriander seeds, salt, and pepper, season the surface of the tenderloin.

Add olive oil to a skillet on high heat. After the skillet is deemed super hot, add the tenderloin the the skillet so that it'll sear. Continue flipping the tenderloin until all sides are seared - it should take about 2-3 minutes per side. In an oven preheated to 350 degrees place the entire skillet (with the tenderloin) on the medium rack and cook for 18-23 minutes or until the internal temperature reads 165 degrees.

For the sauce, add heavy cream to a sauce pan on medium low heat. Add 1/2 stick of butter and grated Parmesan cheese. Stir until all ingredients have melted and add salt and pepper to taste. Finally, turn off the heat and add your dill and stir to incorporate the dill into the creamy sauce.

To plate, add the sauce on a plate and place a few cuts of the roulade (the roulade should've been cut on its bias to reveal the beautiful stuffing on the inside). For extra measure, drizzle a little sauce on top of the roulade as well.
