Breaded Pork Tenderloin

Ingredients

• 1.5 pounds pork tenderloin
• 0.25 cups milk
• 2 eggs
• 0.5 cups 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

Instructions

1. 1

   Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Line a 9x13-inch baking dish with aluminum foil.

2. 2

   Slice tenderloin into 1/4-inch rounds. Pound each slice between sheets of plastic wrap until thin.

3. 3

   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.

4. 4

   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.

5. 5

   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.

6. 6

   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).
