Big Batch Freezer Pork Tenderloin Strips Recipes

BIG-BATCH FREEZER PORK TENDERLOIN STRIPS

Steps:

• Place pork in a glass or metal baking dish, making sure tenderloins are not touching. Freeze until firm to the touch, 30-60 minutes, which will make them easier to slice.
• Mix salt, pepper, coriander, cumin, and brown sugar in a small bowl.
• Transfer chilled pork to a cutting board. If any tenderloins are extra wide, cut in half lengthwise, then thinly slice all tenderloins crosswise into 1/8"-thick strips. Transfer to a large bowl. Add spice mixture and toss until coated.
• Divide pork among 6 resealable freezer quart bags, patting into an even flat layer in bag and pressing as much air out as possible before sealing. Freeze flat for up to 3 months.
• When ready to cook, defrost 1 bag for every 2-3 servings. Place bag in a bowl of warm water and let sit until you can press pieces of pork apart in bag but they're still cold to the touch, about 10 minutes. Heat a swirl of oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Add pork and cook, separating pieces with a wooden spoon or spatula, then stirring often, until browned and just cooked through, 4-5 minutes.
• If you're making soup, add frozen pork directly to boiling broth and simmer until cooked through, 5-6 minutes.

MARINATED PORK STRIPS

Steps:

• In a medium dish or bowl, mix together soy sauce, sugar, onion, garlic, ginger, sesame seeds, and oil. Add pork, and turn to coat. Cover, and refrigerate for 3 hours, turning and basting often.
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Remove pork from marinade, reserving marinade, and transfer to a lightly greased 9x13 inch baking dish. Bake for 45 minutes. Cut into 1/4 inch thick slices.
• While the meat is roasting, boil reserved marinade for 3 to 5 minutes. Serve with pork strips.

CHEESY TENDERLOIN STRIPS

Steps:

• Place butter in a shallow bowl. In another shallow bowl, combine the crackers crumbs, cheeses, basil, salt and pepper. Dip pork in butter, then roll in crumb mixture. Place on an ungreased foil-lined baking sheet. Bake at 400° for 10-15 minutes or until juices run clear. Serve with marinara sauce if desired.

FRIED PORK STRIPS

Steps:

• Cut pork tenderloin cutlets (or lean, boneless pork ribs) into strips (approx 1/2-1/4 inch thick).
• Pour the water into a bowl and set aside.
• Mix the flour, steak seasoning mix and chicken broth powder (or crushed bouillon cubes) together on a plate (I use a paper plate for this).
• Dip each pork strip into the water and then into the flour mixture until well coated.
• Set aside for a few minutes.
• I find it easier to do all of the pork strips before following the next step.
• Preheat a large skillet.
• Pour the oil into the skillet and heat until hot.
• Using a fork or tongs, place each of the pork strips into the hot oil.
• Fry for 10 minutes on each side or until done and not longer pink in the middle.
• Remove the strips onto a plate with a paper towel on it.
• Serve with mashed potatoes and gravy for a tasty meal.
