Pork Loin With Fontina, Prosciutto & Sundried Tomato Sauce

This rich pork loin dish was created by Chef/Owner Susan Spicer of the famed Bayona restaurant, in New Orleans. It’s surprisingly simple to make, but yields delicious results. Fontina cheese is traditionally used in Italian cooking; it’s a good melting cheese, can take the place of Mozzarella and goes well with cured meats.

Yields 2 servings.

Ingredients

  • 5 ounces pork loin, divided in half
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 4 sage leaves
  • 2 ounces fontina, thinly sliced
  • Flour for dredging
  • 1 tablespoon cooking oil
  • 2 tablespoons Marsala
  • 4 tablespoons brown butter*
  • 1 tablespoon sundried tomatoes,
    diced

*To prepare brown butter, cook butter in a small sauté pan over medium heat until golden brown.
