Let’s enjoy every tasty morsel like it was our last. Eat what makes you feel good great invincible. Eat what makes you feel accomplished and never ashamed. Eat because you want to because you can. Pig out, stuff your face. Go hog wild (with pork of course). Indulge in the sweetness of sugar, the fattiness that is butter.

Today we will cook Hot Pork Tenders that’s right Hot Pork Tenders. If you are a pork lover much like me. Yes, I still eat the swine, can’t get enough of the bacon. You will just fall in love with this recipe. Now if you don’t and for the life of me I can’t figure out why ( my own children have shunned the swine but not mama) the pork can be substituted with chicken, turkey and yes even tofu. See I aim to please all the foodies out there no matter what.

What you will need

2 cups flour

1 tbsp chili powder

1 tbsp cumin

1. Pork chops should be washed in cool water
2. Prepare pork chop marinade
3. Cut pork chops into strips the size is up to you
4. Place pork chop strips now tenders in marinade overnight or longer. The longer it is in the marinade the more intense the flavor will become. I allowed mine to marinade for at least 2 days the intensity of flavor was amazing.
5. Using food processor crush flaming hot Cheetos. If you don’t have food processor you can place Cheetos and in gallon Ziploc bag and pound with a hammer or book. This is a great way to relief stress.
6. Add all seasonings to crushed Cheetos. Cheetos should be in a Ziploc bag. Mix together; set aside
7. Prepare Egg Wash
8. Add at least 2 cups of flour to a Ziploc bag
9. Remove marinating strips from refrigerator
10. Place several strips into Ziploc bag and shake to coat. Don’t add too many or all strips will not be coated with flour
11. Dip flour coated tender in egg wash
12. Then dredge the strip in the hot Cheetos breaded.
13. Place on baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
14. Repeat steps 10-14 until all strips are on baking sheet
15. Place strips on baking sheet in preheated oven on 350 for 10-15 minutes.
16. Once the tenders are done
17. Plate and serve with your favorite dipping sauce. Here I chose Honey Mustard.
