This main dish is beautiful in its presentation and always comes out tender and juicy even if you overcook it a little. The crust of bread crumbs holds in all the juices and adds a great look and taste to the finished product.
Ingredients
- 2 cups Italian seasoned bread crumbs
- 0.5 cups olive oil
- 2 pounds pork tenderloin
Instructions
-
1
Gather the ingredients. Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
-
2
Mix bread crumbs and olive oil in bowl to reach consistency that would be moist enough to stick to the meat when pressed.
-
3
Place pork on a shallow cooking sheet. Press the crumb mixture onto all sides of the meat until there is no pink showing, usually 1/4 inch thick.
-
4
Bake for at least 35 minutes until a meat thermometer reads 165 degrees F (75 degrees C) or until there is no pink when the pork is cut.
-
5
Let the pork rest for 10 minutes, then cut into 1/2 inch slices.

Slow Cooker Pulled Pork with Root Beer Recipe
This easy slow cooker pork shoulder with root beer is excellent for making delicious pulled pork sandwiches or as an entrée. Serve over rice or with Hawaiian sweet bread for a yummy little sandwich. I like to top the pulled pork with sliced roasted red peppers, blue cheese, and chimichurri sauce to make a delicious sandwich with Argentinean flavor.
Traditional Pita Breads
This is a great pita bread recipe I got from a friend who works at a great Greek restaurant here in my town. Slice pita in half and fill pockets with your favorite filling, or for dipping, cut into wedges and pan fry in a little olive oil.
