Breaded Pork Tenderloin
This is the most tender, tasty recipe for breaded pork tenderloin.
Ingredients
-
1 ½ pounds pork tenderloin
-
¼ cup milk
-
2 eggs
-
½ cup Italian-style dried bread crumbs
-
2 teaspoons dried oregano
-
1 pinch garlic salt
-
salt and pepper to taste
-
1 tablespoon vegetable oil, or as needed
Description
-
Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Line a 9x13-inch baking dish with aluminum foil.
-
Slice tenderloin into 1/4-inch rounds. Pound each slice between sheets of plastic wrap until thin.
-
Whisk milk and eggs together in a shallow dish. Whisk bread crumbs, oregano, garlic salt, oregano, salt, and pepper together in a second shallow dish. Dip tenderloins in egg mixture, then in bread crumb mixture until well coated.
-
Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Working in batches as necessary, fry breaded tenderloins in the hot skillet and until golden brown on both sides, 2 to 3 minutes per side; they will not be cooked through. Transfer browned tenderloins to the prepared baking dish.
-
Mix any leftover egg and bread crumb mixture together, then fry it in the hot skillet. Place into the baking dish with browned tenderloins. Cover the dish tightly.
-
Bake in the preheated oven until no longer pink in the center, about 45 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).
