Time 1h30m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 20

4 (4 ounce) slices of pork tenderloin, cut across the grain
1 egg, beaten
2 tablespoons milk
¼ teaspoon garlic powder
¼ teaspoon onion powder
¼ teaspoon seasoned salt
¼ teaspoon dried marjoram
¼ teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
1 ½ cups bread crumbs
½ cup peanut oil for frying
4 Kaiser rolls, split
4 teaspoons mayonnaise, or as needed
4 teaspoons ketchup, or as needed
4 teaspoons prepared yellow mustard, or as needed
4 leaves lettuce
4 slices tomato
4 slices onion
4 slices pickle, for garnish

Steps:

  • Place each slice of pork tenderloin between two pieces of sturdy plastic (such as a cut-up large plastic freezer bag), and flatten the cutlet until it's about 1/4 inch thick, and about 3 1/2 by 5 inches in size.
  • Beat the eggs and milk together in a shallow bowl, and whisk in the garlic powder, onion powder, seasoned salt, marjoram, oregano, salt, and pepper until the spices are well blended into the mixture. Place the bread crumbs in a shallow bowl.
  • Dip each flattened cutlet into the seasoned milk-egg mixture and then into the bread crumbs, thoroughly coating the cutlets with crumbs. Set the breaded cutlets aside on a piece of parchment or waxed paper; do not stack.
  • Heat the oil in a large skillet until the oil is shimmering. Gently lower the cutlets, one at a time, into the hot oil, and fry until golden brown on each side, about 8 minutes per cutlet. Drain the cutlets on paper towels.
  • Preheat oven broiler, and set the oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source.
  • Spread the Kaiser rolls open with the cut sides up, and broil until the rolls are toasted and hot, about 1 minute. Top each roll with a fried cutlet (hopefully the sides of the meat will hang out of the roll by at least an inch on each side); top each cutlet with choice of mayonnaise, ketchup, mustard, lettuce, tomato, onion, and a pickle slice, if desired.

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 9

the amount of ingredients listed below is just enough breading for 2-3 tenderloin sandwiches
2-3 pork tenderloin chunks, see *note below
1 1/2 c Corn Flake crumbs, can make your own or can be bought
1 egg, beaten
splash of milk
oil for frying
salt to taste (I leave out)
large bbq buns or hoagie buns
your favorite condiments

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.

PORK TENDERLOIN SANDWICH



Pork Tenderloin Sandwich image

A classic sandwich in the Midwest, particularly popular in Iowa and Indiana, but there are regional variations throughout the entire United STates. I've always thought of this as a German schnitzel on a sandwich. It's crispy and crunchy... tender deliciousness!

Provided by lutzflcat

Time 35m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 (1 pound) pork tenderloin
½ cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon onion powder
½ teaspoon garlic powder
½ teaspoon ground black pepper
1 large egg
½ cup buttermilk
1 cup panko bread crumbs
½ cup olive oil
4 medium soft rolls
4 tablespoons mayonnaise
4 leaves lettuce
12 slices dill pickle

Steps:

  • Trim pork tenderloin of any fat and silver skin, and cut into 4 equal pieces. Place each piece between 2 sheets of plastic wrap or in a resealable plastic bag. Pound the cutlets using a meat mallet to 1/4-inch thickness, flattening each piece.
  • Combine flour, salt, onion powder, garlic powder, and pepper in a shallow dish. Whisk together buttermilk and egg in a second dish. Add panko breadcrumbs to a third dish.
  • Dry cutlets with paper towels, and dredge each in the flour mixture on both sides, shaking off any excess. Next dredge tenderloins in the egg-buttermilk mixture, shaking off the excess. Finally, turn cutlets in the bread crumb mixture, pressing down until completely coated. Transfer to a plate and let dry for at least 5 minutes.
  • Heat oil over medium heat in a 12-inch skillet to between 350 to 375 degrees F (175 to 190 degrees C). Place a couple of breaded cutlets in the skillet, making sure not to crowd, and fry on each side for about 3 minutes, shaking the pan occasionally until cutlets are deep golden brown and crisp. Transfer the cutlets to a wire rack to drain any excess oil. Repeat the procedure with the remaining cutlets.
  • Spread each roll with mayonnaise then add lettuce, pickle slices, and cutlets.

BREADED PORK TENDERLOIN SANDWICH

This is a great make ahead recipe that's perfect for informal get-togethers. If not preparing for serving later, you can omit the baking portion - just cook through when frying. I buy whole pork roasts and slice the entire thing for tenderloins. As long as I'm going to the work to prepare them; I prepare the entire roast for freezing and, walah, several make ahead meals are ready!

Tips:

  • To make the breading extra crispy, use a combination of panko breadcrumbs and flour. The panko breadcrumbs will help to create a light and airy coating, while the flour will help to bind the breading to the meat.
