1 pork tenderloin (1 pound), trimmed
1 teaspoon salt-free seasoning*
2 teaspoons olive oil
12 mini (1 1/2-x-2-inches) rolls, split and toasted
6 romaine lettuce leaves, torn
2 plum tomatoes, each cut into 6 slices*
Cut pork about 1/2-inch thick. Sprinkle pork on all sides with the seasoning. Heat the oil in a large heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Add the pork and cook, turning once, until the pork is browned, about 1 1/2 minutes on each side.
Place the tenderloin in the rolls, top with lettuce, tomatoes, and sauce of your choice.
*Tomatoes can be served raw or broiled for more intense flavor
