   • Secure the roll with toothpicks or tie with kitchen twine at 1-inch intervals.

7. Cooking:

   • Heat olive oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat.
   • Sear the pork on all sides until browned, about 2 minutes per side.
   • If using chicken broth, pour it into the skillet now.
   • Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven.
   • Roast for about 20-25 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches at least 145°F (63°C).

8. Resting and Serving:

   • Once done, remove from the oven and let it rest for about 10 minutes.
   • Remove the toothpicks or twine, then slice the pork into medallions.
   • Serve immediately, drizzled with any juices from the skillet, and enjoy your Tricolore Stuffed Pork!

Optional Serving Suggestions:

• Serve with a side of roasted vegetables or a light salad.
• Drizzle with a balsamic reduction or your favorite sauce if desired.

Notes:

• Ensure the pork reaches the correct internal temperature to ensure it is cooked safely.
• Adjust the amount of stuffing ingredients according to the size of the pork tenderloin.
