Brazilian Pork Rollatini Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C) and place a grill pan in the oven. (Or preheat countertop induction oven on medium heat with grill pan inside.)
• Bring balsamic vinegar to a boil in a saucepan; reduce heat and simmer until balsamic is reduced and thickened into a glaze, 10 to 15 minutes.
• Pound pork cutlets with a mallet to about 1/2-inch thickness.
• Cook and stir sausage, onion, and jalapeno in a skillet over medium heat until onion slightly translucent and sausage is cooked through, about 5 minutes. Add peaches and apple; cook and stir filling until fruit is softened, about 5 more minutes. Add about 1 tablespoon balsamic glaze to the top and stir.
• Spoon filling into the center of each pork cutlet, reserving leftover filling in the skillet. Roll up culet and tie with roasting twine. Place rolled pork onto heated grill pan and return to oven.
• Bake in the preheated oven, turning pork halfway through, until pork is cooked through and browned on the outside, 20 to 25 minutes. (Or grill on medium heat in the countertop induction oven for 15 minutes (7 1/2 minutes each side.)
• Pour balsamic glaze over leftover filling in the skillet; cook and stir over low heat just until warm. Spoon filling onto cooked stuffed pork.

Steps:

• To Make Filling: Heat the olive oil in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic and saute until golden. Add the pork and season with salt and pepper to taste. Cook the pork, crumbling with a fork, for about 10 minutes. Stir in the rosemary. Remove mixture from skillet with a slotted spoon and remove all but 2 tablespoons of the pork fat.
• Lay the chicken breasts flat and season with salt and pepper to taste. Spoon equal amounts of the pork mixture onto each breast, and roll each one up tightly. Secure each roll with 2 toothpicks.
• Heat the skillet with the reserved pork fat over medium high heat until almost smoking. Saute chicken on one side for 3 to 4 minutes or until golden brown. Turn over. Turn heat to medium and saute chicken until cooked through, 5 to 6 minutes.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, mix together the breadcrumbs, Parmesan, parsley, lemon zest, 1/2 teaspoon salt, red pepper flakes and 2 tablespoons olive oil. Lay the tenderloins open and flat on a board in front of you. Season each loin evenly all over with 1/2 teaspoon salt. Lay 3 slices of provolone on each loin. Divide the breadcrumb mixture over the provolone. Roll the loins back up into their original shape and tie in 4 spots with kitchen twine.
• Heat a medium straight-sided skillet over medium-high heat. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil to the skillet. Sear the pork tenderloins until evenly golden brown all the way around, about 3 minutes per side. Remove to a plate to rest. Deglaze the skillet with the white wine and add the marinara sauce. Nestle the pork back in the sauce. Cover the skillet and simmer until the pork is just cooked through and registers 145 degrees F on an instead-read thermometer, about 20 minutes. Remove from the heat and allow to rest uncovered for 10 minutes before slicing and serving with the sauce.

Steps:

• For the chops: Heat a heavy-bottomed skillet over medium heat. Season the pork chops with salt and pepper. Set aside.
• Mix together the milk and eggs in a shallow dish. Place a heaping 1/2 cup of flour onto a plate, add a pinch of salt and pepper and mix through. Add the panko to another plate and season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
• Bread the pork by dredging each chop first in the seasoned flour, shaking off the excess. Next, transfer to the egg/milk mixture, coating both sides. Then, cover with the seasoned panko. Set aside.
• Add the oil and 3 tablespoons of the butter to the skillet. Add the breaded chops and cook until golden and crisp, 2 to 2 1/2 minutes per side. Remove to paper towel-lined plate.
• Without cleaning the skillet, carefully add the capers and remaining 3 tablespoons butter, allowing the butter to melt. Sprinkle the remaining 2 tablespoons of flour over the melted butter and cook, stirring, for 30 seconds. Add the wine and stock and bring to a boil. Simmer until the sauce begins to thicken, about 2 minutes. Add 1 tablespoon of the lemon juice (or more to taste) and adjust the seasoning.
• For serving: Place the arugula on a platter and drizzle with the lemon juice. Shingle the pork chops on top. Drizzle the sauce over the pork chops and finish with the shaved Parmesan and parsley. Serve with the remaining lemon wedges and any extra sauce on the side.

Steps:

• Start by getting your biggest flameproof casserole dish and sealing the pork chunks in the oil - they don't have to be very well browned. Do in batches, then transfer to a plate and tip three-quarters of the onions, the celery, bay and oregano into the dish. Add a splash more oil, if you need, and fry gently until softened.
• Tip in the spices, stir for 1 min to toast, then return the pork to the dish. Crumble in the stock cube and stir in the tomatoes, cocoa, sugar, 2 tbsp of the vinegar, the zest and juice from 1 orange, and 3 of the chilli halves. Bring to a simmer, then cover and leave to bubble for 1 hr.
• Meanwhile, finely chop the reserved chilli half and mix with the remaining onions, the spring onions, and red wine vinegar and the zest and juice from the last orange. Keep cold in the fridge.
• After 1 hr, stir the sweet potatoes and red peppers into the stew, then re-cover and simmer for another 30 mins.
• When the stew has about 15 mins to go, make the dumplings. Rub the butter into the flour until it resembles fine crumbs, then stir in the cornmeal, bicarb and sweetcorn. Finally, mix in the buttermilk and all but 1 tbsp of the egg to make a soft dough. Season with some salt and roll the mixture into 12 soft dumplings, then roll in a little more cornmeal to coat the tops. Brush the tops with the reserved beaten egg.
• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Stir the beans into the stew, then taste for seasoning. Sit 6 of the dumplings on top of the stew and the rest on a baking tray lined with baking parchment. Put both in the oven - the stew without its lid - and cook for 25 mins until the dumplings are golden and risen.
• Carry the stew straight to the table, and sprinkle over a little more oregano before spooning into bowls. Serve the extra dumplings alongside for those who fancy another one, and the onion relish.

Steps:

• Divide the veal tenderloin into three pieces. Carefully and gracefully pound each piece with a meat mallet on each side until 1/8-inch thick.
• Dice the capocollo, Prosciutto, soppressata, provolone, parsley and basil and place in an 8-inch bowl. Mix together.
• Beat eggs together in a small bowl, then add 1 tablespoon egg to the bowl with the meat mixture and mix in. Carefully divide stuffing into 3 portions and roll each up in a scallopini very tightly.
• Heat oil in an 8-inch saute pan until lightly smoking. Roll each rollatini in flour, then shake off excess and roll in remaining egg wash until covered. Place rollatinis in hot oil, seam-side down.
• Allow to brown, lowering heat as needed. Gracefully turn, cooking scallopini until they have golden-brown crusts, approximately 3 minutes on each side. Remove excess oil from pan, then place back on medium heat and add mushrooms. Allow to cook for 2 minutes, then season with salt, pepper and parsley. Add Marsala wine to deglaze pan, then carefully add stock, butter and demi-glace. Allow heat to remain on medium until the liquid reduces by half, then by half again. When you see the pan sauce is the consistency of heavy cream, you have achieved nirvana. Gracefully place rollatinis on a plate, then cover with remaining sauce and mushrooms.

Steps:

• Position a rack in the upper third of the oven and preheat to 450 degrees F. Cook the broth, garlic, tomatoes and basil in a skillet over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened, about 15 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Cover to keep warm.
• Season the chicken with salt and pepper; place smooth-side down on a work surface. Sprinkle with the parsley and mozzarella. Starting at the short end, roll up to enclose the filling. Secure with a toothpick.
• Mix the parmesan and breadcrumbs in a shallow dish. Put the egg white in another dish and beat until foamy.
• Mist a cast-iron skillet with cooking spray. Dip the chicken rolls in the egg white, then coat with the breadcrumb mixture. Place in the skillet, seam-side down. Sprinkle with any remaining breadcrumbs and mist with cooking spray. Bake until cooked through, about 20 minutes. Serve with the tomato sauce, and polenta, if desired.

Steps:

• 1. Cut the pork loin crosswise into 12 thin slices, or have your butcher do it. (It helps to partially freeze the pork before slicing.) Each slice should be about 4 inches long, 3 inches wide, and 1/4 inch thick if the slices are too thick, you can pound them between sheets of plastic wrap, using the side of a heavy cleaver or a rolling pin. Season the slices with salt and pepper.2. Spread the grated cheese in a shallow bowl. Dip each slice of pork in grated cheese, turning to lightly coat both sides and shaking off the excess. Lay the pork slices flat on your work surface and spread the surface of each lightly with mustard. Place a strip of ham, an onion wedge, and a cornichon (if using) at one narrow end of each slice, then roll the pork tightly around the filling to form a compact roll. Tie each roll in the center with butcher's string or pin shut with toothpicks. Brush the rolls with oil, put on a plate, and sprinkle with any remaining cheese (see If Doing Ahead).3. Preheat the grill to medium-high.4. When ready to grill, oil the grate. Arrange the pork rolls on the hot grate and grill, turning with tongs, until nicely browned on all sides and just cooked through (firm to the touch), 8 to 12 minutes in all. Remember to remove the strings or toothpicks before serving.Makes 12 rolls serves 6 as an appetizer, 4 as an entrée

Steps:

• Cut pork loin into 12 equal slices.
• Place each slice between sheets of wax paper and lightly pound until each slice is around 4 inches long and 3 inches wide.

• Lightly salt and pepper each piece of meat.
• Sprinkle Gruyere evenly between each piece of meat.
• Place one slice of ham on each piece of meat.
• At the front end of each piece of meat center a pickle slice and sprinkle with diced onion.
• Starting at the pickle end roll meat tightly around filling.
• Secure with 2 toothpicks.
