Almond-Crusted Pork with Honey-Mustard Dipping Sauce Recipe
WebMD Recipe from EatingWell.com
Sliced almonds add a delectable, almost-like-fried-chicken crunch to the breading for these tender pieces of pork. We slice the pork thinly to keep the cooking time quick. The resulting pork “fingers” are great dipped in this surprisingly simple, delicious honey, soy and mustard sauce.

Ingredients
Prep: 25 minutes | Total Time: 40 minutes
Instructions
Tip
Note: We like coarse dry whole-wheat breadcrumbs, labeled “Panko breadcrumbs.” Find them in the natural-foods section of large supermarkets. To make your own breadcrumbs, trim crusts from firm sandwich bread. Tear the bread into pieces and process in a food processor until coarse crumbs form. Spread the breadcrumbs on a baking sheet and bake at 250°F until dry and crispy, about 15 minutes. One slice of bread makes about 1/3 cup dry whole-wheat breadcrumbs.

This Recipe Is:
Ingredients
Prep: 25 minutes | Total Time: 40 minutes
- 1 cup
coarse dry breadcrumbs, preferably whole-wheat (see Note) - 1/2 cup
sliced almonds - 1 teaspoon
garlic powder - 1/2 teaspoon
kosher salt - 1/4 teaspoon
freshly ground pepper - 1
large egg white, beaten - 1 pound
pork tenderloin, trimmed and cut diagonally into 1/2-inch-thick slices - 1/4 cup
honey - 2 tablespoons
reduced-sodium soy sauce - 2 tablespoons
Dijon mustard
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425°F. Set a wire rack on a baking sheet and coat it with cooking spray.
- Place breadcrumbs, almonds, garlic powder, salt and pepper in a food processor; pulse until the almonds are coarsely chopped. Transfer the mixture to a shallow dish.
- Place egg white in another shallow dish. Dip both sides of each pork slice in egg white, then evenly coat with the almond mixture. (Discard any remaining egg white and almond mixture.) Place the pork on the prepared rack and coat on both sides with cooking spray.
