Pork Scallopini

I've never had "Pork Scallopini" before and was pretty excited to try this recipe. It did sound odd with apples and ham and all but oh my this was so tasty!!!! These ingredients were made to go together it seems. We gobbled this meal up real quick, here is how we made it...

Pork Scallopini      

Serves 4

Pork Scallopini

ingredients

•1 lb pork tenderloin, cut into 1" thick medallions and pounded thin
• flour, for dredging
• 6 tbsp EVOO
• 1/4 lb ham steak, diced
• 3 Granny smith apples, cored and diced
• 1 cup apple cider
• 3 tbsp butter
• 2 tbsp apple cider vinegar
• 5 sage leaves

• Kosher Salt & Freshly Cracked Black Pepper

directions

1. Heat a large cast iron skillet over medium-high heat. Season the pork with S&p on both sides and dredge in flour, shaking excess off. Add 3 Tbsp EVOO to the skillet and cook the pork in 2 batches adding another 3 tbsp EVOO on the second round. Remove and drain on paper towels, keep warm.

2. Add the ham to the skillet and brown for 1 minute. Add the apples to the skillet and cook for 1 minute, then add the apple cider. Reduce for 2minutes, then add the butter. Stir to combine. Finish with the vinegar and the sage leaves. Add s&p if needed. Nestle the pork back into the sauce just to warm through.

Serve the pork topped with the sauce.

Enjoy!
