Lemon Rosemary Pork Scaloppini

I'm all about quick easy recipes. Of course I also want those quick and easy recipes to be yummy.  This Lemon Rosemary Pork Scaloppini is definitely yummy.

Like...crazy yummy.  And quick.  And pretty easy.  Did I mention it's really yummy?

I've actually never made any kind of scaloppini before.  But, on a recent grocery shopping trip, this pork was an amazing price and marked as "for scaloppini."  So, I decided to give this cut a try.  The scaloppini turned out so good, that if it's still on sale on my next shopping trip, I'm going to buy 10 more packs!

Since the pack of pork that I purchased was already really thin, I did not need to pound the meat as usual with a scaloppini recipe.  I sprinkled the pork with salt and pepper before giving each piece a light coat of flour.

I set the pork aside while my pan was heating up and I prepared my lemons.  Don't you love the smell of fresh lemons?  It's one of my favorite scents.

I added some butter to a sizzling hot pan before gently placing the pork on top.  Then I squeezed the juice of half a lemon and tossed in some fresh rosemary from the garden.  I love using fresh herbs.  Dried rosemary would be perfectly fine too though.

The scaloppin only needed about 4 minutes on each side, and then I removed it from the pan and covered loosely with foil.

Make a Pan Sauce for your Scaloppini

On to the pan sauce!!!!  This is always my favorite part of a recipe.  Check out the bubbly goodness.

To make the pan sauce, after I removed the pork, I added butter, more lemon juice, and 3/4 cups of chicken stock.  Then I let the sauce reduce by half.  Once the pan sauce was ready, I replaced the pork back in to the pan along with some lemon slices.

Roughly 4 more minutes and this lemon rosemary pork scaloppini was ready!
