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.

Sweet and Sour Cabbage Soup
This hearty sweet and sour cabbage soup is my version of an old favorite Ashkenazi Jewish recipe. I make a stock first, then make the soup. This allows for de-fatting the soup, but you need to make this on two days, so time accordingly. Using savoy cabbage gives the soup superlative texture and flavor.
New & Improved Chicken Parmesan
I love chicken parm, especially when it's made with fresh mozzarella, which it almost never is in restaurants. Of course, at home we can use the real stuff, but it can be pricey. So I tried something new--a cheese spread using ricotta fortified with sharp Cheddar.
Italian-Style Chicken Noodle Soup
What makes this soup so good? It gets a real boost of flavor from the garlic, fennel, pesto and fresh parsley. When you're in the mood for a bowl of comforting, delicious soup, then this is the recipe for you. Best of all, you can have it on the table in just 35 minutes!
