TOTAL TIME: Prep/Total Time: 30 min.
YIELD: 4 servings.
Meat is a hard sell with my teenage daughter unless I make it look like a restaurant dish. Drizzle ranch dressing or barbecue sauce on top and it's a home run. —Donna Carney, New Lexington, Ohio
Ingredients
-
1 pork tenderloin (1 pound)
-
1/3 cup all-purpose flour

1/3 cup cornbread/muffin mix

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon pepper

1 large egg, beaten

Ranch or barbecue sauce, optional
Directions

1.
Cut pork crosswise into 1/2-in. slices. In a shallow bowl, mix flour, cornbread mix, salt and pepper. Place egg in a separate shallow bowl. Dip pork in egg, then in flour mixture, patting to help coating adhere.

In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons oil over medium heat. Add half of the pork; cook until a thermometer reads 145°, 3-4 minutes on each side. Drain on paper towels. Wipe skillet clean; repeat with remaining oil and pork. If desired, serve with sauce.
