Instructions:

  1. Prep the Pork: Begin by placing the pork slices between two sheets of waxed paper or plastic wrap. 🥩 Using a meat mallet, gently pound the slices to an even thickness of about 1/2 inch. This ensures quick and uniform cooking.

  2. Prepare Egg Wash: In a medium bowl, whisk together the egg whites and water. This mixture will help the breadcrumbs and Parmesan cheese adhere to the pork, creating a delectable crust. 🍳

  3. Cheese & Breadcrumb Mixture: In another bowl, combine the finely grated Parmesan cheese and breadcrumbs. This blend will form the crispy, cheesy coating for the pork. 🧀

  4. Set Up Flour: Place the flour in a third bowl. This step will lightly coat the pork, aiding in the adhesion of the egg wash and breadcrumb mixture. 🌾

  5. Season Pork: Lightly season the pork slices with salt. This subtle seasoning enhances the flavors without overpowering the dish. 🧂

  6. Coating Process:

    • First, dip each pork slice into the flour, shaking off any excess.
    • Then, immerse the floured pork into the egg wash, ensuring it’s evenly coated.
    • Finally, press the pork into the Parmesan cheese and breadcrumb mixture, ensuring a generous coating.
  7. Heat the Skillet: In a large non-stick skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. The oil should be hot but not smoking, ready to sear the pork to golden perfection. 🍳

  8. Cook the Pork: Place the breaded pork slices into the hot skillet. Cook each side for about 2 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the pork is cooked through. The quick cooking time ensures the pork remains tender and juicy. 🔥


Serving Suggestions:

Serve this delightful Pork Tenderloin Parmesan with a side of mashed potatoes, spiced with a hint of chipotle for a smoky kick, and fresh asparagus, lightly steamed to retain their vibrant color and crisp texture. This combination makes for a satisfying and balanced meal. 🥔🥦
