Pork And Prosciutto With Marsala Brown Butter Food

PROSCIUTTO-WRAPPED PORK LOIN

Steps:

• Combine the parsley, sage, mustard and shallot in a mini food processor and pulse until coarsely chopped and combined. Add the olive oil and blend to form a paste. Season with salt and pepper.
• Season the pork loin with salt and rub the paste all over it. Lay the prosciutto slices on a piece of parchment paper, shingled in 2 overlapping rows to form a 12-inch square. Place the pork loin in the middle of the prosciutto square. Using the parchment to help you roll, roll the prosciutto up over the loin, pressing firmly to adhere the prosciutto to the loin. Continue to roll until the entire pork loin is tightly covered in prosciutto (the prosciutto should overlap itself). Refrigerate at least 1 hour, preferably overnight.
• In a small saucepan, bring the sugar, maple syrup, BBQ sauce, star anise, cinnamon stick, orange zest and jalapeño to a simmer. Let cool to room temperature, or overnight in the fridge.
• When you're ready to roast the pork, preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Place the butter, garlic and rosemary in a large, ovenproof saute pan and heat over medium-low heat until the butter is melted, about 2 minutes. Lay the prosciutto-wrapped loin in the pan seam-side down. Roast until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the center of the loin reads 120 degrees F, 30 to 40 minutes.
• Brush the glaze on the loin and continue to roast to 135 degrees F for medium, 10 to 15 minutes more. Allow the meat to rest before slicing, then spoon the pan juices over the pork slices.

PORK MARSALA WITH MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Place the pork chops between 2 pieces of plastic wrap and pound with a mallet or heavy skillet until 1/4-inch-thick.
• Sprinkle the pork on both sides with salt and pepper. Put the flour in a shallow dish and dredge the pork in it, shaking off any excess.
• Heat the olive oil and 2 tablespoons butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add half of the pork and cook until browned and cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Remove to a plate and set aside. Repeat with the remaining pork.
• Add the mushrooms to the skillet and stir. Cook until golden brown, 5 to 6 minutes.
• Pour in the Marsala and beef broth and stir to deglaze the pan, scraping up the browned bits. Cook until the liquid is reduced by half, 5 to 6 minutes. (If the liquid reduces too quickly, splash in more broth as needed.)
• Whisk the cornstarch into the heavy cream in a small bowl. Pour into the sauce mixture and let it bubble and thicken for another minute.
• Turn off the heat and stir in the remaining 2 tablespoons butter. Serve the pork with the Buttered Noodles and spoon some of the mushrooms and Marsala sauce on top. Sprinkle with the parsley.
• Add the egg noodles to a pan of salted boiling water and cook according to the package directions, 6 to 7 minutes.
• Drain, put back in the pan and add the butter, then season with salt and pepper. Add the parsley and toss.

PORK MARSALA WITH SPINACH

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Butterfly the pork: Cut in half horizontally, almost all the way through, then open it like a book so the roast is flat. Season with salt and pepper; sprinkle with 2 tablespoons flour. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Brown the pork, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer to a baking dish (reserve the skillet) and bake until a thermometer inserted into the center registers 140 degrees F, 15 to 20 minutes. Let rest on a cutting board, 5 minutes.
• Add the mushrooms and 1/4 teaspoon salt to the skillet and cook until golden brown, about 8 minutes. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon flour and cook, stirring, 1 minute. Add the broth and marsala and bring to a boil. Add the cream and boil until the sauce thickens, about 8 minutes. Off the heat, stir in 2 teaspoons lemon juice and the parsley.
• Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil in a pot over medium-high heat and cook the spinach until wilted, 3 to 4 minutes. Stir in the remaining 2 teaspoons lemon juice and season with salt and pepper. Slice the pork. Serve with the mushroom sauce and spinach.

PORK TENDERLOIN WITH MARSALA SAUCE

Steps:

• Whisk flour, salt, and pepper together in a medium bowl. Dredge tenderloins in the mixture until coated.
• Heat 2 tablespoons oil and butter in a large skillet over medium heat until butter has melted. Sear tenderloins in the skillet until browned on all sides, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove tenderloins to a paper towel-lined plate.
• Add mushrooms to the same skillet, adding more oil if needed. Cook until soft, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove to a bowl and drain excess liquid from the skillet.
• Add onion and garlic to the skillet with more oil if needed. Cook until translucent, about 5 minutes. Remove and toss on top of the mushrooms. Turn off the heat.
• Pour 1/2 cup Marsala wine into the skillet and scrape any browned bits of food off the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon. Add brown gravy, beef broth, and onion-mushroom mixture. Add tenderloins and turn to coat all sides. The liquid should nearly cover the meat.
• Turn heat to medium-low and simmer until slightly pink in the center, about 30 minutes; the meat should be cooked through but not shredding apart. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).
• Remove tenderloins. Stir the sauce and add more wine if desired.
• Slice tenderloins and set on a platter. Pour Marsala sauce over top and serve.
