🥘 Ingredients

13 items

• 4 pieces boneless pork loin, thinly sliced into cutlets
• 0.5 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoons salt
• 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 2 cloves garlic, minced

• 1 teaspoons fresh thyme leaves, chopped
• 1 tablespoons capers, rinsed and drained

📝 Instructions

9 steps

1. Place each pork loin cutlet between two pieces of plastic wrap or parchment paper. Gently pound them using a meat mallet or rolling pin until they are about 1/4 inch thick.

2. In a shallow dish, combine the flour, salt, and black pepper. Dredge each pork cutlet in the flour mixture, shaking off any excess.

3. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil and 1 tablespoon of butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. When the butter melts and starts to foam, add half of the pork cutlets. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown. Remove and set aside on a plate. Repeat with the remaining oil, butter, and pork cutlets.

4. In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium and add the minced garlic. Cook for 1 minute until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.

5. Deglaze the skillet by pouring in the dry white wine, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Let it simmer for 2 minutes to reduce slightly.

6. Add the chicken stock, lemon juice, fresh parsley, thyme, and capers to the skillet. Stir to combine and let the mixture cook for another 2-3 minutes.

7. Return the cooked pork cutlets to the skillet, spooning the sauce over them. Let them simmer gently in the sauce for 5 minutes to absorb the flavors.

8. Adjust seasoning to taste with additional salt and pepper if needed.

9. Serve the pork scaloppine hot, garnished with extra parsley if desired. Pair with sautéed vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a side of pasta for a complete meal.
