This tasted good and was moist but I had some issues! I ended up wasting about half of the breadcrumb mixture just because it didn't stick well to the pork (which I rinsed in cold water and then dried thouroghly before rubbing with oil) so I think that next time I would only use 1 cup or 3/4 cup of breadcrumbs. The seasonings were good but I could have done with less salt - I would use about 1/2 teaspoon next time. After 25 minutes of roasting at 425 my pork was only at 120 degrees - I had to roast for about 50 minutes total to get between 160 and 170 degrees.

This was very good and easy!! After I rubbed the olive oil on the tenderloins I rubbed some Kosher Salt and Garlic salt on and let it set at room temperature for about 45 min before I rolled them in the bread crumbs - I will definitely make this again - Thanks

This was really good. I only used 1 pork tenerloin, rubbed olive oil on it in a mixing bowl, sprinkled it generously with garlic seasoning, then let it sit for half an hour at room temperature befire rolling it in the breadcrumbs . I'm thinking this would also be good with parmesan cheese mixed in with the breadcrumbs next time. I served this with a broccoli, wild rice and stuffing casserole. Yum!

Excellent! Served along with Dijon Roasted Baby Potatoes, which cooked at the same temperature, and Steamed Fresh Green Beans. A great Sunday evening supper on a cold and snowy night!
