Using tongs, take one piece of tenderloin and dip it into the wet egg mixture.
Coat both sides and remove from the wet mixture.
Dredge the tenderloin in the dry crumb mixture.
Repeat with all of the tenderloin pieces and set them on a plate.

Serve hot with our sugar-free Classic dipping sauce

Notes

To make pork rind crumbs: place pork rinds into a food processor and pulse until they are ground. Don't over pulse. Do in small batches. Store in an airtight container.
