This pork and capicola dish is topped with a luscious sherry demi-glaze sauce made up of walnuts and dried apricots. It is bursting with flavor! Serve this with cheesy polenta and a nice green salad. I purchased an envelope of demi-glaze instead of making my own. A real time-saver! Capicola also comes in sweet or spicy. I prefer the spicy.
Ingredients:
4 pork tenderloin, sliced thin and pounded lightly
4 slices of spicy capicola
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/2 cup walnuts, finely chopped
1/4 cup sherry wine
1 cup demi-glace
1 cup chicken stock
6 dried apricots, thinly sliced
Directions:
1. Lay out the pork cutlets and top each piece with a slice of capicola.
2. Roll up the cutlets and secure with a toothpick or string.
3. Heat the butter and olive oil in a large skillet.
4. Once hot, add the pork and brown on both sides until golden.
5. Remove from skillet.
6. Add the walnuts, sherry wine, demi-glaze, and chicken stock to deglaze the skillet.
7. Return the pork to the skillet along with the apricots and continue cooking.
8. Reduce by half until the sauce is thickened and the pork is tender, about 10 minutes.
9. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
