Pork Picatta

Serving Size  : 4    

  1        pound  boneless pork top loin chops -- 4 chops--pounded flat

            garlic powder -- to taste

            onion salt -- to taste

            black pepper -- to taste

            cayenne -- to taste

  1        cup  flour -- for dredging

  4        tablespoons  butter -- divided

  2        tablespoons  olive oil

  1        small  onion -- diced

  2        tablespoons  capers

  1        lemon

  1        cup  dry white wine

 

Pound pork to an even thickness. Season to taste with garlic powder, onion salt, black pepper, and cayenne. Dredge in flour shaking off excess.

 

In a large sauté pan, melt 2 T. butter and olive oil and add pork when butter is sizzling. Cook pork until golden brown and almost cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes per side; remove from pan and set aside.

 

Add onions to the pan and cook until translucent and starting to turn golden; about 3-4 minutes.

 

Sweep onions to the side and add pork back to pan along with the capers. Squeeze lemon over pork and allow it to sizzle off and absorb in and then add white wine and bring to a boil. Simmer until cooked thru; about 5 minutes. Adjust seasoning with more fresh lemon juice, salt and pepper, if needed. Add remaining 2 T. butter just before serving and allow to melt into the sauce.
