BREADED PORK TENDERLOIN

Steps:

• Slice tenderloin into 1/4 inch rounds. Place rounds between sheets of plastic wrap and pound until thin.
• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
• Beat eggs and milk together and pour into a shallow dish or bowl. Set aside. In a separate dish or bowl combine breadcrumbs with garlic salt, oregano, salt and pepper. Mix all together. In a large skillet heat oil over medium high heat. Meanwhile, dip tenderloins in egg mixture, then coat with bread crumb mixture. When oil is hot, add coated tenderloin to skillet and fry until golden brown on both sides (not cooked through)!

Cover tightly and bake in the preheated oven for about 45 minutes or until meat has reached an internal temperature of 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).

BREADED PORK TENDERLOIN SANDWICH

Steps:

• Cut the pork tenderloin crosswise into 4 even pieces. Cut each piece crosswise again, but do not go all the way through; you should be able to open it like a book. Pound each piece with a mallet until 1/4-inch thick and 6 to 8 inches across.
• Whisk together the buttermilk, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, sugar, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper in a shallow dish. Add the pork cutlets. Make sure all the pieces are coated well with the buttermilk marinade. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours and up to overnight.
• Set up a breading station with 3 shallow dishes: the flour in the first dish, eggs in the second and breadcrumbs in the third. Sprinkle all 3 dishes with salt and pepper.
• Fill a large, high-sided skillet with about 1/2-inch oil, attach a deep fat fry thermometer and heat to 350 degrees F.
• Dredge each pork cutlet in the flour first, then in the egg and finally in the breadcrumbs. Gently place into the hot oil without overcrowding the skillet. You will need to fry the cutlets in batches. When the cutlets are golden brown on one side, about 2 minutes, carefully turn and cook for another 2 minutes. Drain well on a paper-towel-lined plate.
• Build the sandwiches by putting the cutlets between the burger buns and garnishing with lettuce, tomato, onion, pickle, mayonnaise and mustard. The cutlet should hang generously over the bun.

BREADED PORK TENDERLOIN SANDWICHES

Steps:

• 1. You can have your butcher cut and tenderize the tenderloin for you if you like. Here is how I do it. Cut across tenderloin strip at 3-inch intervals.
• 2. Place 1 chunk into gallon Ziploc bag and pound with flat side of meat mallet until about 3/8 inch thick.
• 3. You want it thin, when put in frying pan meat will draw up a bit and become thicker. Repeat for each chunk. 1 chunk = 1 sandwich
• 4. Place Corn Flake crumbs in a shallow bowl or on a large plate. Add salt if using and mix well; set aside. Beat egg in another shallow bowl and add a splash of milk, mix well. Set aside.
• 5. Place oil in a skillet about 1/2 inch deep and heat while breading tenderloin.
• 6. Dip the flat pieces of tenderloin, one at a time into the egg mixture, making sure both sides are coated.
• 7. Then into the Corn Flake crumbs pressing the crumbs into the meat with your hands, coating both sides.
• 8. Hold with both hands and place carefully into the hot oil. Fry on the first side until golden brown, turn and fry the second side until golden brown and meat is thoroughly cooked. Watch carefully as crumbs will burn easily.
• 9. Drain on paper towel.
• 10. Serve deluxe on extra large buns, mayo, lettuce, sliced tomato, sliced onion, and pickle. My Fave: mustard and dill pickle. Also, good with cole slaw on top.
• 11. *NOTE: My pork tenderloin was about 2 1/3 lbs. There were 2 strips of tenderloin. I cut across each strip in 3 inch intervals and got 6 chunks out of the 2 strips. I pounded out all the chunks with the flat side of a meat mallet to about 3/8 inch thick. Wrapped each in plastic wrap, then in foil and placed in a Ziploc bag for the freezer. I saved 2 for dinner. I did not bread the tenderloin I wrapped for the freezer.
