These pork tenderloin sandwiches are just like the ones you can get at the fair! The pork is way bigger than the bun, which is what makes it fun. —Erin Fitch, Virginia Beach, Virginia

Directions

1
In a shallow bowl, mix flour, salt and pepper. Place egg in another shallow bowl. Combine bread crumbs and place in a third shallow bowl.

2
Cut lengthwise through the center of each pork filet to within 1/2-in. of bottom. Open each piece flat; cover with plastic wrap. Pound each filet with a meat mallet to 1/4-in. thickness. Dip in flour mixture to coat both sides; shake off excess. Dip in egg, then in crumb mixture, patting to help adhere.
3
In a large skillet, heat oil over medium heat. Cook pork 2-3 minutes on each side or until golden brown. Remove from pan; drain on paper towels. Serve in buns, with toppings as desired.
