Pork Scaloppine
Why I Love This Recipe
Ingredients You'll Need
1 tbsp unsalted butter
1 tbsp olive oil
2 1-lb pork loin, cut into 10 cutlets, then pounded to 1/8 inch thick
3 tsp kosher salt
1/4 tsp freshly ground black pepper
1 cup chicken broth
1 tsp lemon zest
1 tsp lemon juice
Directions
Heat the butter and oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat.
Season the 10 pork cutlets with 2 teaspoons of the salt and pepper.
Cook the cutlets until lightly browned and cooked through, about 1 minute per side or until tender. Remove from pan.
Set aside 5 cutlets to keep warm.
Save 4 cutlets for tomorrow and freeze 2 for whenever.
Add the chicken broth to the pan and simmer, scraping up the brown bits with a wooden spoon, until slightly thickened, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in the lemon juice and the remaining salt.
Drizzle the meat with the pan juices and sprinkle with the zest.

Note: Chicken also makes a good substitution.
