Serves: 4
Ingredients
  • ½ gallon canola oil, for frying
  • 2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons Acadiana Table Cajun Seasoning Blend, see recipe here
  • 4 (3/4-inch-thick) slices pork loin, tenderized
  • Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • 4 large sesame seed hamburger buns
  • 1 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 cups shredded iceberg lettuce
  • 8 slices ripe tomato
  • 1 cup round dill pickle slices
Instructions
  1. In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add the oil.
  2. In a shallow bowl, add the flour and seasoning. Stir to combine.
  3. Sprinkle the pork loin slices with salt and pepper; dredge in the flour and coat each side thoroughly removing any excess.
  4. Once the oil reaches 350ºF, add the pork loin and fry until golden brown on each side. Remove to a paper towel-lined platter and keep warm.
  5. For assembly, open the buns and slather both halves with mayonnaise; add the shredded lettuce and 2 tomato slices along with the pickle slices to the bottom half. Top with the fried pork loin and close the sandwich. Serve with potato chips or French fries.
Notes
Buy the boneless pork loin chops and ask your butcher to run it through a tenderizer twice, rotating 90 degrees on the second pass.
