Tortilla-Crusted Pork
- 2 pounds pork tenderloin
- 1/2 cup finely crushed blue-corn tortilla chips
- 1/2 cup finely crushed tortilla chips
- 1 tablespoon coarsely ground pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
- 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil, divided
- Garnish: fresh cilantro sprigs
- Remove silver skin from tenderloin, leaving a thin layer of fat covering tenderloin. Cut tenderloin into 1-inch-thick medallions.
- Combine blue-corn tortilla chips and next 5 ingredients in a bowl. Brush pork medallions with 1 1/2 Tbsp. olive oil, and dredge in tortilla chip mixture, pressing mixture into medallions on all sides to thoroughly coat.
- Cook pork medallions in remaining 1 1/2 Tbsp. hot oil in a large skillet over medium heat 6 minutes on each side or until done. Serve with salsas. Garnish, if desired.
- Note: Nutritional analysis does not include salsas.
