Recipes Featuring Patsy’s Vodka Sauce

PORK SCALOPPINE ALLA VODKA

10 ounces fresh mushrooms, sliced
1 pound boneless center-cut pork loin, cut into slices just over 1/4 inch thick
1/2 cup all-purpose flour, for dredging
1/2 cup olive oil
3 scallions, thinly sliced
1 cup chicken stock, or water
3 cups (24 ounces) Patsy’s Vodka Sauce
1/4 cup chopped fresh basil

Blanch mushroom slices in boiling water for 2 minutes. Drain and set aside. Gently pound the slices of pork to slightly less than 1/4 inch in thickness. Dredge the pork scaloppine in flour, shaking off the excess. Heat olive oil in a large skillet and quickly sauté the scaloppine until lightly browned, about 1 minute on each side. (Do not crowd the skillet or the pork will not brown properly. Cook the scaloppine in a few batches.) Drain excess oil from the skillet. Arrange all of the scaloppine in the skillet and add the mushrooms, scallions, stock, and Patsy’s Vodka Sauce. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 10 minutes. Salt and pepper, to taste. Garnish with basil.
