Warm Spinach Salad With Pork Milanese Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 180 degrees F or the lowest it will go.
• Set up a standard breading procedure by placing the flour, egg, and panko mixed with the grated pecorino in separate wide flat containers. Season the pork generously with salt on both sides. Using 1 hand for wet ingredients and the other hand for dry ingredients coat the meat in the flour, then in the eggs, and then in the bread crumbs, pressing the panko onto the pork to adhere. Set aside until ready to cook.
• In a large skillet over medium heat, add olive oil until it is about a 1/2-inch deep. Check the temperature of the oil by dipping the edge of the pork into the oil, if it does not sizzle and bubble STOP and WAIT! Check it again in another minute. If the oil is smoking it is too hot. When the oil is at the proper temperature gently add the pork. Do not crowd the pan or you will end up with greasy pork; it may be necessary to work in batches. When the pork is beautifully golden brown and cooked through, remove them from the pan and blot on paper towels. Put them on a baking sheet, sprinkle with salt and put them in a warm oven.
• In another large skillet over medium-high heat, pour in a thin layer of olive oil. Add the onions, season with salt, and cook them for 3 to 4 minutes. Add the mushrooms, season with salt, and cook until they are soft and wilted, about 3 to 4 minutes. If the pan is looking dry add another few drops of olive oil. Toss in the apples and remove the pan from the heat. Add the escarole and radicchio and toss with the vinegar and more olive oil and salt, if needed.
• Arrange a piece of pork in the center of each plate and top with the salad. Sprinkle with the shaved pecorino and pumpkin seeds. You rock!

Steps:

• Make the dressing and marinate the tomatoes: In a small bowl, whisk together the Balsamic Reduction and mustard. Slowly whisk in the olive oil until emulsified. In a medium bowl, combine 1/2 cup of the dressing with the tomatoes and salt to taste. Toss to coat and let sit at room temperature for at least 30 minutes. Reserve the remaining dressing for the sandwich.
• Make the pork: Cut the tenderloin on a bias into four equal pieces. Pound out each piece between 2 sheets of plastic wrap into a long 1/4-inch-thick cutlet.
• Set up a breading station with three shallow bowls. Place the flour in the first bowl. In the second bowl, beat the eggs with 1 tablespoon vegetable oil (this gives it the puffy golden brown exterior we love!). Place the breadcrumbs in the third bowl.
• Generously sprinkle the pork cutlets with salt and pepper. Dredge in the flour and shake off the excess. Then coat in the egg, allowing the excess to drip off. Coat in the breadcrumbs, pressing to make sure it all sticks. Transfer the cutlets to a sheet pan and let dry out for 5 to 10 minutes.
• Heat the remaining 2 cups oil in a large high-sided pan or skillet over medium heat until it registers 375 degrees F on a deep-fry thermometer. Fit two sheet pans with wire racks and set aside.
• Fry the cutlets in batches while gently shaking the skillet to ensure no sticking and that the tops of the cutlets get some love, until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Transfer to a rack to drain.
• Assemble the subs: In a medium bowl, combine the arugula and lemon juice. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Toss to coat. Set aside.
• Cut the bread in half horizontally to split. Drizzle the cut sides of the bread with the reserved balsamic dressing and some olive oil. Place the burrata slices on the bottom half of the bread, ensuring that all that creamy interior goodness evenly mingles with the bread. Sprinkle with flakey salt. Layer the pork, shingled and on a bias, on top. Top with the dressed arugula, marinated tomatoes, basil and banana peppers. Drizzle with some banana pepper brine, then close up with the bread top! Slice on the bias into 4 equal sandwiches.
• In a small saucepan, add the balsamic, brown sugar, thyme, garlic, shallots and salt and pepper to taste. Bring to a simmer, then let it cook until it reduces to 3/4 cup, 20 to 25 minutes. Set aside and let cool. Strain.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Set up a standard breading procedure by putting the flour, 2 eggs beaten with 1 tablespoon water, and panko mixed with 1/4 cup grated Parmesan in separate wide flat containers. Season the pork, generously, with salt on both sides. Using 1 hand for wet ingredients and the other hand for dry ingredients, coat the meat in the flour, then the eggs, and then the bread crumbs, pressing the panko onto the pork to adhere. Set aside until ready to cook.
• Line a baking sheet with a silpat or parchment paper. Spread a tablespoon of the grated parmesan into a thin circle about 3-inches in diameter to form a frico. Repeat 3 more times. Put the baking sheet into the oven and bake until the cheese is melted and lightly browned, about 10 minutes. Remove the pan from the oven and reduce the heat to 200 degrees F.
• In a large saucepan over high heat, bring 2 to 3 inches of water to a boil. Add the white vinegar and reduce the heat to bring the water to a bare simmer. Carefully crack the remaining 4 eggs into the water and cook until the whites are set but the yolk is still soft, about 2 to 3 minutes. Remove the eggs with a slotted spoon and place them into a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking. Keep the water on the fire to reheat the eggs when you are ready to serve.
• In a large skillet over medium heat add olive oil until it is about a 1/2-inch deep. Check the temperature of the oil by dipping the edge of the pork into the oil, if it does not sizzle and bubble STOP and WAIT! Check it again in another minute. If the oil is smoking it is too hot. When the oil is at the proper temperature gently add the meat. Do not crowd the pan or you will end up with greasy pork, it may be necessary to work in batches. When the pork is beautifully golden brown on each side and cooked through, remove from the pan and blot on paper towels. Sprinkle with salt and put them in a warm oven on a sheet pan.
• In another large skillet over medium-high heat, pour in a thin layer of olive oil. Add the onions and a pinch of red pepper flakes, season with salt, and cook for 3 to 4 minutes. Add the mushrooms, season with salt, and cook until they are soft and wilted, about 3 to 4 minutes. If the pan is looking dry add another few drops of olive oil. Add the arugula, radicchio and red wine vinegar. Toss to combine and add more olive oil if needed. Season with salt, if needed.
• When you are ready to serve, remove the poached eggs from the ice bath and put them back into the hot water. Arrange a piece of pork in the center of each serving plate and top it with some of the salad. Remove each egg from the hot water and pat dry. Put it on top of the salad and sprinkle with a few red pepper flakes. Carefully remove a frico from the baking sheet and prop it up next to the egg. Sprinkle some extra Parmesan all around and drizzle with some olive oil. You rock!

Steps:

• Brown 2 tablespoons of butter in a saute pan. Add the onion and saute then add basil. Next, add the roasted garlic, 2 tablespoons Parmesan and spinach. Add cooked pasta, season with salt and pepper and garnish with Parmesan.
• Butterfly the pork chops and pound them thin between 2 sheets of plastic wrap. Separate milk, flour, seasoned eggs and breadcrumbs into 3 separate bowls. Dip each pork chop in the milk first, then flour next eggs and last the bread crumbs. Saute until golden brown on both sides. Garnish with mesclun salad, a sprig of onion, red wine vinegar juice and olive oil.
