Method

  1. Heat 1 tbsp oil in a large frying pan and add the onions, cooking until soft, for about 5 minutes. Add the sliced garlic and bay leaves, and cook for 1 minute more. Add the peppers and 3 tbsp water then cover and cook for 10 minutes. Uncover, pour in the tomatoes and cook down for 10-15 minutes more, until the peppers are soft.
  2. Brush the escalopes with 1/2 tsp oil and griddle (chargrill) for 3-4 minutes each side, depending on thickness, until cooked through. Allow to rest while you make the dressing.
  3. Blitz the olives, anchovy, vinegar, crushed garlic, 1 tbsp of olive oil and enough water to get a drizzling consistency. Spoon peperonata onto a plate, top with the pork, drizzle the dressing over and serve with steamed broccoli.

    Although the colours are good, the overall dish was disappointing -we found it bland. Needs spicing up!
