• **To get the 'restaurant style' thin pork slices, partially thaw frozen pork loin in refrigerator or under cool, running water. Hold a sharp knife almost parallel to the cutting board and slice along the edge of the loin (The pieces will gradually get bigger the further in you cut). Make the slices as thin as you can because they will thicken as they cook.
