Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking dish with aluminum foil.
- In a small bowl, mix salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika.
- Rub spice mixture evenly over the pork tenderloin.
- Wrap bacon around the tenderloin, securing with toothpicks if needed.
- Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear bacon-wrapped tenderloin on all sides until bacon is crispy (2-3 minutes per side).
- Transfer to the prepared baking dish and sprinkle with brown sugar.
- Roast for 20-25 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C).
- Let rest for a few minutes before slicing.

Keto and Low-Carb Options
For a keto or low-carb version, substitute brown sugar with erythritol or stevia, and use turkey bacon.
Tips for Success
- Let the pork tenderloin reach room temperature before cooking for even cooking.
