Caesar Pork Tenderloin Sandwiches Recipes

CRISPY PORK TENDERLOIN SANDWICHES

Steps:

• In a shallow bowl, mix flour, salt and pepper. Place egg in another shallow bowl. Combine bread crumbs and place in a third shallow bowl., Cut tenderloin crosswise into 4 slices; pound each with a meat mallet to 1/4-in. thickness. Dip in flour mixture to coat both sides; shake off excess. Dip in egg, then in crumb mixture, patting to help adhere., In a large skillet, heat oil over medium heat. Cook pork 2-3 minutes on each side or until golden brown. Remove from pan; drain on paper towels. Serve in buns, with toppings as desired.

CAESAR PORK TENDERLOIN

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°F Salt and pepper tenderloin.
• Combine mayonnaise, anchovy paste, lemon juice and garlic. On a plate, combine crushed crouton crumbs and parmesan cheese. Spread the mayonnaise mixture completely over the tenderloin and then roll in the crumb/cheese mixture to coat. Place on a flat baking sheet.
• Bake for 15-20 minutes or until tenderloin is medium well done (slightly pink in the center). Cut into 1/4 inch thick slices to serve.
• Note: You can use a knife to spread the mayonnaise mixture on the tenderloin but I always use my hands to get it all over the place. It's messy but it seems to pay off. This is what those disposable gloves are for.
• When I buy my pork tenderloin there are usually two in the package.
• You find the anchovy paste in a tube like toothpaste near the tuna in the grocery store.
• Put the croutons in a zip top plastic bag and use a rolling pin to crush them. It keeps them together and works great. You can add the parmesan cheese to this and mix it together well before you put the mixture on the plate.

GRILLED CAESAR PORK TENDERLOIN

Steps:

• Prepare a medium-hot grill or preheat the broiler. If using the broiler, line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil.
• While the grill or broiler is heating up, place the pork and 1/2 cup of the Caesar dressing in a shallow dish and turn to coat. Let marinate for 20 minutes, or until the grill or broiler is ready.
• Place the pork on the grill or, if broiling, place on the prepared baking sheet. Grill or broil, 4 inches from the heat, basting with the marinade after 5 minutes. Cook, turning once, for about 20 minutes total, or until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the thickest part of the meat registers 150°F. Transfer the pork to a cutting board and cover loosely with aluminum foil. Discard any remaining marinade.
• In a large bowl, toss together the lettuce, croutons, Parmesan cheese, pepper, and the remaining 1/2 cup Caesar dressing.
• Divide the salad among four large shallow bowls. Cut the pork tenderloins into slices 1/2 inch thick and serve on top of the salad.
