Ingredients

  • 2 boneless pork tenderloins cut crosswise into four pieces
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 tsp Colonel De's Pork and Poultry seasoning
  • 2 tsp Hungarian paprika
  • 2 tsp salt
  • 3 large eggs lightly beaten
  • 1 1/2 cups Panko bread crumbs
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil

Instructions

  • Place each of the eight pieces of pork tenderloin between two sheets of plastic wrap and pound them until just 1/4-inch thick - using the flat side of a meat tenderizer. Lightly season both sides with salt and pepper.
  • Whisk together the flour, pork and poultry seasoning, paprika and salt in one shallow bowl. Add the eggs and lightly beat them to a second shallow bowl. Place the bread crumbs in a third shallow bowl.
  • Heat the oil in a large skillet until it is about 330 degrees F. 
  • Take one piece of pork and dredge both sides in flour, then egg, then bread crumbs. Gently place into hot oil and fry 2 -3 minutes per side until deep golden brown. Transfer to a paper towel lined cutting board and repeat the process until all eight pieces of pork are fried.
  • Serve immediately with fresh slices of lemon.
