This was quite a challenge without a mortar and pestle but with patience, perseverance and the flat side of a chef's knife I got the job done. This was just delicious. The contrast of the bite of the peppercorns with the sweetness of the red pepper was interesting, piquant and delicious. This "paste" permeates the meat and flavors it beautifully and that, coupled with the wine and chicken broth the submitter advised to add in a separate review, made for a wonderful sauce. I left the lemon off mine, hubs included it in his - -we were both pleased as pie! I served this with rice pilaf (parsley buttered potatoes would have been good too) and fresh asparagus. Great dish with a lovely presentation.

We loved this pork! Like others, I couldn't get over how tender it came out. I served it with pine nut couscous and it was an excellent and healthy meal. So simple, yet so delicious :)

This dish really surprised me. I didn't think something so simple could be so good! My husband usually does not like pork, but he loved this! He said it tasted like steak. Followed the recipe exactly.

This was wonderful. Next time, I will just sprinkle it with freshly ground pepper & mince the garlic. Also, I just sliced the tenderloin thinly instead of pounding it. I'm all about quick & easy, and I think it would be just as good. Also, I'll cut down a little on the pepper next time so my kids will like it more. Fabulous flavor combination & a definite keeper!

The fresh lemon squeezed over the pork chops was definitely the key to a delicious dish. Thank you for sharing!

we've used this recipe several times but not for a while. this time the only change we made to the recipe was to use the paste as a marinade then grill our bone in pork chops instead of using the medallions in the pan. we coupled it this time with Ramsay's Ultimate Cauliflower Cheese recipe. incredible!!! best dinner i've had in a while and that's a serious statement. and my 10 y/o loveloveloved all of it!

Amazing!! This was a very different preparation technique and the results were wonderful. I've made it several times and absolutely LOVE it! Thanks, Stuart, for a great taste sensation--I'd give more stars if they were available!!
