Parmesan Crusted Pork Tenderloin Recipes

Steps:

• Cut pork into 1/2-in. slices; flatten to 1/8-in. thickness. Coat with Parmesan cheese; set aside., In a large skillet, saute the onion, mushrooms and garlic in 1 teaspoon butter and 1 teaspoon oil until tender; remove and keep warm. In the same skillet, cook pork in remaining 1 teaspoon butter and 1 teaspoon oil in batches over medium heat until juices run clear, about 2 minutes on each side. Remove and keep warm., Add broth to pan, scraping to loosen browned bits. Stir in wine or additional broth; add seasonings. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, for 5 minutes. Combine cornstarch and water until smooth; stir into pan juices. Bring to a boil; cook and stir until thickened, about 2 minutes. Serve with the pork and the onion mixture.

Steps:

• Slice pork into 12 pieces, and place between sheets of plastic wrap. With a small heavy skillet or meat mallet, pound pork to 1/8-inch thickness.
• Combine egg whites with 1 tablespoon water in a shallow bowl or pie plate and lightly beat to combine; set aside. In a second shallow bowl, combine breadcrumbs and Parmesan; set aside.
• Season pork with salt. Dredge in flour, tapping off excess. Dip first in egg-white mixture, then place in breadcrumb mixture, turning to coat. Pat gently to adhere.
• In a large nonstick skillet, heat 1 tablespoon oil over medium-high heat. Saute half the pork until golden brown and cooked through, about 1 minute per side. Repeat with remaining tablespoon oil and remaining pork. Serve with lemon wedges and parsley sprigs.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
• Mix breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, salt, pepper and poultry seasoning in a small bowl and set aside.
• Place pork tenderloin on greased baking pan. Cover with mayonnaise. Cover with bread crumb mixture.
• Roast 20 - 27 minutes until internal temperature is 145 degrees. Pull, tent with foil and let rest 3 minutes.
• Note: I typically serve with fingerling potatoes, split in half and tossed in olive oil, salt and rosemary. Roast in dish with pork tenderloin. Buttered green beans completes the meal.

Steps:

• Whisk the eggs in a pie plate to blend. Place the bread crumbs in another pie plate. Place the cheese in a third pie plate. Sprinkle the pork chops generously with salt and pepper. Coat the chops completely with the cheese, patting to adhere. Dip the chops into the eggs, then coat completely with the bread crumbs, patting to adhere.
• Heat 3 tablespoons of oil in a very large skillet over medium heat. Add pork chops, in batches if necessary, and cook until golden brown and the center reaches 150 degrees, about 6 minutes per side. Transfer the chops to plates and serve with lemon wedges.

Steps:

• Cut the pork loin into 4 equally-portioned pork chops. Place each chop between 2 sheets of plastic wrap and pound with a meat mallet until the chop is about 1-inch thick.
• Place the bread in a food processor and pulse into large breadcrumbs. Add the Parmesan cheese, salt, and pepper, and pulse a few more times. Transfer the crumb mixture to a shallow bowl.
• Prepare a breading station: In a shallow bowl or plate, place the flour along with salt and pepper. In another shallow bowl, beat the egg with 1 tablespoon water, until the egg is no longer stringy, about 1 minute. Line up the flour, egg, and breadcrumbs in that order.
• Heat a large saute pan over medium-high heat, and add the vegetable oil and butter. Dip the pork chops in the flour to dust lightly, shake off the excess flour, then dip in the egg and finally the crumbs. Cook the pork until golden brown and cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Once cooked, remove to a paper towel-lined plate to blot the excess oil. Season the cutlets with salt, and pepper and serve with lemon wedges.

Steps:

• Pound pork with the flat side of a meat mallet into 1/4-inch-thick cutlets. Pat dry with paper towels; lightly season with salt and pepper. Place flour in a pie dish or a wide, shallow bowl; season with salt and pepper. Whisk eggs in a second dish. Toss breadcrumbs and oregano in a third dish; season with salt and pepper.
• Working one at a time, dredge cutlets in flour, shaking off excess, then eggs, allowing excess to drip back into dish. Press into breadcrumb mixture, flipping to fully and evenly coat. Transfer to a wire rack; let stand 10 minutes.
• Heat a scant 1/2 inch of oil in a large, heavy skillet (preferably cast iron) over medium-high. When it shimmers and a breadcrumb dropped in immediately rises to surface and sizzles, carefully add a few cutlets in a single layer (do not crowd skillet). Fry, flipping once, until golden brown all over and just cooked through, 4 to 5 minutes total.
• Transfer to a rimmed baking sheet lined with a wire rack. Let stand until drained and crisp, about 5 minutes. Meanwhile, repeat with remaining cutlets.
• Preheat broiler with a rack about 8 inches from heat element. Top cutlets evenly with Parmigiano, then tomato sauce and mozzarella. Broil just until cheese melts, 2 to 4 minutes. Top with basil and serve warm, with more tomato sauce and Parmigiano alongside.
