Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Pork tenderloin
- 1 cup Almond flour
- 0.5 cup Tapioca starch
- 2 large Eggs
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 cup Coconut oil
- 1 medium Avocado
- 1 tablespoon Lime juice
- 2 tablespoons Cilantro
- 2 cups Mixed greens
- 4 pieces Grain-free buns
Instructions
Slice the pork tenderloin into 1/2-inch thick medallions.
In a shallow bowl, combine almond flour, tapioca starch, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
In another shallow bowl, beat the eggs.
Dip each pork medallion in the beaten eggs, allowing any excess to drip off. Then coat the medallion in the almond flour mixture, pressing down to adhere.
Heat coconut oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Once the oil is hot, fry the pork medallions until golden brown and cooked through, about 3-4 minutes per side. Remove and drain on a paper towel-lined plate.
While the pork is cooking, prepare the avocado sauce by mashing the avocado in a bowl. Mix with lime juice and chopped cilantro. Season with salt to taste.
Assemble the sandwiches by spreading a generous amount of avocado sauce on each side of the grain-free buns.
Place a few pieces of crispy pork on the bottom half of each bun, followed by a handful of mixed greens.
Top with the other half of the bun and serve immediately.
