Best 5 Pork Wrapped In Sage And Prosciutto Recipes

PORK LOIN WITH PROSCIUTTO, FONTINA, AND SAGE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• In a medium bowl, combine panko, fontina, and sage. Stand roast on end and insert thin-bladed knife down center of loin to make 2-inch opening all the way through. Use your fingers to force the slit into a long 1-inch-diameter hole. Pack panko mixture into hole, working from both ends of roast. Season roast on all sides with salt and pepper.
• Place roast, fat side up, on work surface. Arrange prosciutto slices across top of roast. Tie with kitchen twine at 1- to 1 1/2-inch intervals. Place in shallow roasting pan, prosciutto side up, and roast 45 minutes to 1 hour, or until internal temperature reaches 145 degrees F.
• Remove roast from oven and let rest 10 minutes. Remove twine. Slice roast and arrange on serving platter. Serve drizzled with any pan juices.

PROSCIUTTO-WRAPPED PORK TENDERLOIN WITH CRISPY SAGE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Lightly season pork with salt and black pepper. Arrange about 6 sage leaves over tenderloin. Wrap prosciutto around tenderloin and sage, overlapping prosciutto slightly; wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate to allow prosciutto to set on pork tenderloin, 5 to 10 minutes. Remove plastic wrap.
• Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Fry wrapped tenderloin in the hot oil until prosciutto is crispy and lightly browned on all sides, 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer wrapped tenderloin to a baking dish, reserving oil in the skillet.
• Bake tenderloin in the preheated oven until pork is cooked through, about 20 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).
• Heat reserved oil in the skillet over medium heat; fry remaining sage leaves until crispy, adding more oil as needed, about 5 minutes.
• Slice tenderloin and serve with crispy sage leaves.

PORK CHOPS SALTIMBOCCA

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Season the pork with salt and pepper. Top each chop with a sage leaf, then wrap in 2 slices prosciutto. Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chops, sage-side down, and cook, turning once, until the prosciutto is crisp, 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer to a baking sheet, reserving the skillet, and roast until a thermometer inserted sideways into the center of a chop registers 145 degrees F, about 8 minutes. Top each with a slice of provolone; return to the oven until the cheese melts, 1 to 2 minutes. Meanwhile, put the spinach in a microwave-safe bowl; add the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil, 1 tablespoon water and a pinch of salt. Cover with plastic wrap and microwave until wilted, 3 minutes; drain. Drizzle with half of the lemon juice and season with salt and pepper. Heat the reserved skillet over medium heat; add the shallot and cook, stirring, until soft, 3 minutes. Add the broth and simmer until reduced by half. Stir in the remaining lemon juice and season with salt and pepper. Divide the pork among plates; drizzle with the shallot sauce. Serve with the spinach and lemon wedges.

SAGE & PROSCIUTTO PORK WITH RICH MUSHROOM RAGOUT

Steps:

• Prepare Ahead: Cut each tenderloin in half and split almost in half down length. Open out the pork and bat out with a rolling pin. Put 3 slices of prosciutto overlapping lengthwise on a board and put one pork tenderloin on top. Season all over with salt and pepper, put three sage leaves on top and sprinkle with a little lemon juice. Roll up like a swiss roll and tie with two pieces of string or secure with cocktail sticks. Repeat with the remaining pork. Put in a roasting tin, cover and chill for up to 24 hours until ready to cook.
• Peel and finely chop the shallots. Tip the dried mushrooms into a measuring jug and pour over boiling water to reach the 300ml/1⁄2 pint mark. Leave for 20 minutes. Heat the oil in a pan, add the shallots and gently cook for 5 minutes without colouring. Drain the mushrooms, reserving the soaking liquid, chop and add to the pan with the fresh mushrooms. Season and cook until the mushrooms are softened, about 5 minutes.
• Splash in the Marsala and cook until the liquid is almost gone. Add the soaking liquid, tomato purée, salt and pepper and bubble up for 2 minutes. Set aside for up to 2 hours until ready to serve.
• On the day: Preheat the oven to 190C/Gas 5/fan oven 170C. Roast the pork rolls for 25-30 minutes, until the prosciutto is crisp and the pork feels firm to the touch. Gently reheat the mushroom ragout then serve each pork parcel, cut in half with a little mushroom ragout on the side. Scatter over a little chopped parsley.

BARBECUED PORK WITH SAGE, LEMON & PROSCIUTTO

Steps:

• Whizz together the prosciutto, the zest of three and the juice from 11⁄2 lemons, the chopped sage and plenty of seasoning until blended to give a thick paste. Put aside and reserve the rest of the lemons.
• Cut each tenderloin lengthways down the centre, but not all the way through. Open out the meat, butterfly style, and flatten slightly. Make about 10 deep slashes in each tenderloin, cutting about three quarters of the way through. Rub the paste over the meat and into the slashes.
• Brush the tenderloins with oil. Barbecue the meat, paste side down, for 6-8 minutes. Turn over and cook for a further 6-8 minutes until tender and cooked through.
• Transfer the pork to a platter and, while hot, top it with the slices of butter. Leave for a minute or two to melt. Squeeze the reserved lemon halves over the pork (or use fresh ones). Scatter with sage sprigs, then serve cut into thick slices.
