Instructions
In a frying pan, add canola oil and cook chopped onions, salt and pepper. Cook until onions are soft and remove from heat and allow to cool.
Trim any fat or silver skin off the tenderloins. In a frying pan over medium heat, sear both tenderloins until lightly browned all over. Let rest on a cutting board.
Using a small bowl, mix the onions with cheese, chopped thyme and bread crumbs.
Cut the tenderloins ¾ way through lengthways down the centre and open them up like a book. Stuff the tenderloins with cheese, breadcrumb and onion mixture. Tie with kitchen twine in 2" intervals.
Place the tenderloins in a roasting pan and cook uncovered for 40-45 minutes at 350℉. Internal temperature should be 145℉.
Let stand for 10 minutes, remove twine and slice into medallions.
