Bocadillo de Lomo

Bocadillo de Lomo is a delightful Spanish sandwich featuring marinated pork loin, served on gluten-free bread, and topped with vibrant roasted peppers. This dish delivers a rich flavor experience that embodies the essence of Spanish cuisine.

Ingredients

• Pork loin - 300 grams
• Gluten-free sandwich bread - 2 slices
• Olive oil - 2 tablespoons
• Garlic cloves - 2, minced
• Paprika - 1 teaspoon
• Salt - 1 teaspoon
• Black pepper - 1/2 teaspoon
• Red bell pepper - 1, sliced
• Green bell pepper - 1, sliced
• Fresh parsley - a handful, chopped
• Lemon juice - 1 tablespoon

Steps

1. In a bowl, mix olive oil, minced garlic, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Add the pork loin and marinate for at least 15 minutes.
2. While the pork is marinating, heat a skillet over medium heat and add a tablespoon of olive oil. Add the sliced red and green bell peppers and sauté until they are tender, about 5-7 minutes.
3. Remove the peppers from the skillet and set aside. In the same skillet, add the marinated pork loin and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until the pork is cooked through and golden brown.
4. Once cooked, let the pork rest for a few minutes before slicing it thinly.
5. To assemble the bocadillo, place a generous amount of sliced pork on one slice of gluten-free bread, top with sautéed peppers, chopped parsley, and a drizzle of lemon juice. Close the sandwich with the other slice of bread.
6. Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious Bocadillo de Lomo!
