My Crispy Breaded Pork Chop Tenderloins Recipe
My husband was always raving about this paticular fried "pork tenderloin sandwich" from this little bar in Lacona, Iowa. Until I made these... now he raves about mine!

I could see this being a perfect sandwich...what a change instead of the turkey, tuna etc. So many things you can do with this..slice it up and put it on a hoagie bun with condiments, with mayo and tomatoe...I'M IN!!!!!!


This was very good, My husband loved it and asked if I would make it again. It was a bit too greasy for me but I think that was in my error. I thought I had them done and I cut into them before I served them to check and they were a little pink. So instead of throwing them back in the pan I added a lot more oil and turned the heat back on. I think if I wouldnt have added the more oil they would have been perfect. I love the flavor of the breading.... mmmm mmmm GOOD!


I think maybe you are right, it was the oil temp. I put the stove heat on about a 6 and heat up the oil before I put them in the pan and then once I cook both sides to a crispy touch, I dry them on a paper towel (on a glass plate).
If the oil is too hot, it will smoke, if it is too low, it won't "sizzle" and it will soak into the crackers. It took a bit of practice for me to get this one right!


I made this last night and my husband loved it! You are definately right on the medium level of cooking the pork chops. The cracker crust was amazing. Thank you!!
