Remember that we eat everything SPICY! If you don't, watch out for the red pepper, Tabasco and Ro-Tel tomatoes. Also, I won't apologize for the butter and/or bacon fat or anything else considered "unhealthy".

If you're gonna cook with me, be sure you have the "Cajun Trinity" on hand ... onion, bell pepper & celery. Laissez les bon temps rouler !!!

Parmesan Pork Tenderloin

12 oz. pork tenderloin
2 large egg whites
1/4 c. Italian style breadcrumbs
1/4 c. grated Parmesan
3 Tblsp. all-purpose flour
salt & pepper
1 Tblsp. olive oil

Slice tenderloin into 12 rounds.  Put rounds between waxed paper and smash with a meat mallet to about 1/8" to 1/4" thick.

Beat egg whites in a small, shallow bowl and mix in 1 Tblsp. water.  In another bowl, mix breadcrumbs with Parmesan.  In a third bowl, place the flour and season with salt & pepper.  Dredge pork through flour -- then in egg whites -- then in breadcrumbs, patting to be sure it sticks.

Heat olive oil in non stick skillet to medium high.  Cook the cutlets until golden brown (about 2 minutes/side).  Add another tablespoon olive oil if necessary.
