I came up with this idea, while I was staring at a loaf of Pullman bread I had just baked, and wondering what to do with it. I thought about beef, chicken, and finally settled on thinly-sliced, oven-baked pork tenderloin. Then, besides a “kicked up” mayonnaise, lettuce, and tomatoes, I threw a sunny-side-up egg on top for good measure. So, you ready… Let’s get into the kitchen.

    PREP/PREPARE

    Chef’s Note: The tenderloin will give you enough pork to make 4 or 5 good-sized sandwiches. However, the recipe ingredients in the Sandwich Assembly area are what you will need for one sandwich.

    Gather your Ingredients (mise en place).
  • 4
    THE PORK TENDERLOIN
  • 5
    Take a fork, and poke a bunch of holes in the tenderloin, then rub on the grapeseed oil, and sprinkle with the spices.

    Place a rack in the middle position, and preheat the oven to 400f (205c).

    Place the grapeseed oil in an ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat, and sear the tenderloin on all sides, about 2 minutes per side.
