Ingredients

For this recipe, you'll need:

400 g pork fillet, fresh thyme, fresh dill, salt, olive oil, Tutto Calabria Hot Honey, assorted colored bell peppers, sugar, vinegar, and poppy seeds.

How to Make Tutto Calabria Hot Honey Pork Fillet

Step 1: Prepare the Pork

Season the pork fillet with a drizzle of olive oil and one tablespoon of Tutto Calabria Hot Honey. Add salt and gently massage the meat with fresh thyme and dill until evenly coated.

Place the seasoned fillet inside a cooking bag and cook in the oven at 65°C (149°F) for approximately 2 hours. Slow cooking at a low temperature helps create an incredibly tender, juicy pork fillet while allowing the flavors of the spicy honey and herbs to fully develop.

Step 2: Make the Sweet and Sour Peppers

While the pork is cooking, slice the colored peppers into thin strips.

Cook them in a skillet with olive oil and a pinch of salt until softened. Once tender, add sugar and vinegar to create a classic sweet-and-sour glaze. Continue cooking until the sauce thickens and beautifully coats the peppers.

The peppers provide a vibrant, slightly tangy contrast that perfectly complements the rich sweetness of the hot honey.

Step 3: Finish with Tutto Calabria Hot Honey

After the pork has cooked for two hours, remove it from the cooking bag.

Brush the entire fillet generously with Tutto Calabria Hot Honey, then quickly sear it in a hot pan with a knob of butter until beautifully caramelized. This final step creates a glossy finish while enhancing the honey's naturally fruity Calabrian chili flavor.

Step 4: Plate and Serve

Slice the pork into medallions and lightly coat a few slices with poppy seeds for added texture and visual appeal.

Arrange the pork alongside the sweet-and-sour peppers and finish with an extra drizzle of Tutto Calabria Hot Honey for even more flavor.

Serve immediately and enjoy.

What Are Calabrian Chili Peppers?

Calabrian Chili Peppers are one of southern Italy's most beloved ingredients, grown in the Calabria region where the Mediterranean climate produces peppers with a distinctive flavor profile.

Unlike peppers that are simply hot, Calabrian chiles are known for their bright, mildly fruity taste with a pleasant lingering heat, making them ideal for sauces, oils, spreads, honey, and countless Italian recipes.
