Oatmeal Crusted Pork Loin Recipes

PARMESAN-CRUSTED PORK LOIN CUTLETS

Steps:

• Cut the pork loin into 4 equally-portioned pork chops. Place each chop between 2 sheets of plastic wrap and pound with a meat mallet until the chop is about 1-inch thick.
• Place the bread in a food processor and pulse into large breadcrumbs. Add the Parmesan cheese, salt, and pepper, and pulse a few more times. Transfer the crumb mixture to a shallow bowl.
• Prepare a breading station: In a shallow bowl or plate, place the flour along with salt and pepper. In another shallow bowl, beat the egg with 1 tablespoon water, until the egg is no longer stringy, about 1 minute. Line up the flour, egg, and breadcrumbs in that order.
• Heat a large saute pan over medium-high heat, and add the vegetable oil and butter. Dip the pork chops in the flour to dust lightly, shake off the excess flour, then dip in the egg and finally the crumbs. Cook the pork until golden brown and cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Once cooked, remove to a paper towel-lined plate to blot the excess oil. Season the cutlets with salt, and pepper and serve with lemon wedges.

ROAST PORK LOIN WITH CRUMB CRUST

Steps:

• Heat oven to 425°F. Line broiler pan with foil. Sprinkle pork with salt and pepper. Place pork, fat side up, in pan.
• In small bowl, stir together bread crumbs, oil, parsley, garlic and mustard; press mixture onto top of pork.
• Roast uncovered 15 minutes; cover loosely with foil. Roast 1 hour longer or until meat thermometer inserted into center of pork reads 145°F. Let stand 3 minutes before slicing.

ROASTED PORK LOIN

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Crush garlic with rosemary, salt and pepper, making a paste. Pierce meat with a sharp knife in several places and press the garlic paste into the openings. Rub the meat with the remaining garlic mixture and olive oil.
• Place pork loin into oven, turning and basting with pan liquids. Cook until the pork is no longer pink in the center, about 1 hour. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 145 degrees F (63 degrees C). Remove roast to a platter. Heat the wine in the pan and stir to loosen browned bits of food on the bottom. Serve with pan juices.

PARMESAN CRUSTED PORK TENDERLOIN

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
• Mix breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, salt, pepper and poultry seasoning in a small bowl and set aside.
• Place pork tenderloin on greased baking pan. Cover with mayonnaise. Cover with bread crumb mixture.
• Roast 20 - 27 minutes until internal temperature is 145 degrees. Pull, tent with foil and let rest 3 minutes.
• Note: I typically serve with fingerling potatoes, split in half and tossed in olive oil, salt and rosemary. Roast in dish with pork tenderloin. Buttered green beans completes the meal.

OATMEAL PORK CHOPS - SKILLET OR GRILLED

Steps:

• Grind oatmeal until it's a course powder.

• In a small bowl combine the egg and milk.
• Coat each pork chop with the egg mixture and then a coating of oatmeal, set aside.
• In a large skillet cook the pork chops on low for about 15 minutes or until done (internal temperature of 160).

COFFEE-CRUSTED PORK LOIN

Steps:

• Heat oven to 425°F. In small bowl, mix coffee, brown sugar, 2 teaspoons of the salt, the pepper and garlic powder. Rub coffee mixture on all sides of pork, coating completely. Wrap tightly in plastic wrap; let stand at least 10 minutes or refrigerate up to 2 hours to absorb flavors.
• Spray shallow roasting pan or broiler pan with cooking spray. Place pork, fat side up, in pan. In medium bowl, toss carrots, garlic and onion with oil. Sprinkle with remaining 1 teaspoon salt. Arrange vegetables around pork in pan.
• Roast 40 to 50 minutes or until meat thermometer inserted into center of pork reads 145°F. Place pork on serving platter. Cover with foil and let stand 3 minutes before slicing. Stir adobo sauce into pan drippings, tossing with roasted vegetables. Spoon vegetables and sauce onto platter around pork.

ROASTED PORK LOIN

Steps:

• In a skillet, combine the first 12 ingredients; saute until the vegetables are tender. Untie roast and separate. Randomly cut 20 deep slits, 1 in. wide, on inside surface of roast. Fill slits with some of the vegetable mixture; retie roast. Place on a rack in a shallow baking pan. Spread remaining vegetable mixture over the roast. Bake, uncovered, at 325° for 2-3 hours or until a thermometer reaches 160°-170°. Let stand for 10 minutes before slicing.
