Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 400F. Coat a rimmed baking sheet with cooking spray.

Holding a chef's knife at a 45? angle and perpendicular to the tenderloin, slice the pork into four long, thin "fillets"

Mix breadcrumbs, sugar, paprika, onion powder and salt in a shallow dish. Drizzle with oil and mash with fork until the oil is thoroughly incorporated. Lightly beat egg white with a fork in another shallow dish. Sprinkle cornstarch over the pork slices and pat to coat evenly on both sides. Dip the pork into the egg then press into the breading mixture until evenly coated on bith sides. (Discard leftover mixture.)

Place the pork on the prepared baking sheet. Bake until just parely pink in the center and an instant-read thermometer registers 145?, 14 to 16 minutes. Do not overbake or you'll be serving hockey pucks.
