Pork With Pepper Sauce
Over the years, we have amassed a large collection of Dutch oven recipes, and we enjoy sharing them
with others who appreciate this form of cast iron cooking. The popularity of Dutch oven cooking has increased
greatly over the past several years as many people discover the benefits of using these cast iron pots and
associated pieces of cast iron cookware. Most of our recipes can be used for indoor cooking in your oven or
outdoors in a more traditional campfire setting.
The pork fillet is marinated in brandy and then wrapped in prosciutto before being fried; you can make
this overnight as the meat absorbed the marinade even more that makes the fillet juicy on every bite. With a
combination of a delicious peppercorn sauce; simple yet amazing dish!
