  14. 14

Note

Let the pork rest for at least 5 minutes after baking to allow the juices to redistribute, ensuring moist slices.

If you do not have a meat mallet, you can use a rolling pin or a heavy skillet to pound the tenderloin.

For a gluten-free option, ensure the sausage casing is removed and the sausage meat contains no filler breadcrumbs, or substitute with ground pork and seasonings.

This dish is traditionally known as Paupiette de Porc.

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently in a covered dish with a splash of broth or wine to prevent drying out.
