Pork Steaks with Mozzarella and Oregano

  • 1 lb Hatfield All Natural or Simply Tender Pork Tenderloin, thinly cut

  • 4 tbsp Flour
  • 2 tbsp Sweet butter
  • 4 tbsp Meat stock

Directions:

  1. Put the pork steaks in a dish and sprinkle with salt, pepper and the sprigs of marjoram. Pour over the red wine and leave to marinate for about an hour
  2. Heat the oven to 400 degrees
  3. Puree the tomatoes through a food mill or strainer directly into saucepan. Add 1 tablespoon of olive oil, garlic, and salt and pepper to taste. Cook over a lively heat without the lid, for 5 minutes
  4. Lift the steaks out of the marinade and pat dry with paper towels. Turn the steaks over in the flour, coating both sides well. Shake off the excess flour
  5. Heat the rest of the oil and the butter in a large skillet. When the foam has nearly disappeared, slide in the steaks and fry briskly to sear both sides. Pour over the strained liquid from the marinade and let it bubble for about 30 seconds, then add the stock and salt and pepper, and bring the liquid to a boil. Lower the heat and cook, covered, for 5-7 minutes
  6. When the meat is cooked, transfer it to an ovenproof dish. Deglaze the skillet with a little water and reduce it to only 3 or 4 tablespoonfuls. Spoon the mixture over the steaks. Cover each steak with a layer of cheese and place a spoonful of tomato sauce in the middle. Sprinkle with oregano, salt and black pepper. Pop the dish into the preheated oven for about 5 minutes and allow cheese to melt
