Yield: 2 to 4 servings
Ingredients: 1/2 cup milk; 1/4 cup white wine; 1/4 cup chopped onion; 1 1/2 teaspoons adobo seasoning; 4 large eggs; 3 cloves garlic; 2 scallions, chopped; Salt and freshly ground black pepper; Salt and freshly ground black pepper; 2 (1-pound) boneless center-cut pork loins, butterflied by the butcher; Plain breadcrumbs, as needed; Corn oil, as needed; Aji, recipe follows; red beans and rice; sweet bananas; 10 jalapenos, stemmed; 1/4 cup water; 1/4 cup white distilled vinegar; 1/4 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice; 1 1/2 cups finely chopped scallions; 1 cup finely chopped cilantro leaves; 2 teaspoons salt

Directions

To make the marinade: Combine all of the ingredients in blender and puree until smooth. Transfer to bowl. (The marinade can be made up to 2 days in advance covered and refrigerated.)
To marinate the chuleta: Transfer the pork to the marinade and marinate at room temperature for 10 to 15 minutes.
Put bread crumbs in a plastic bag. Add pork and using the palm of your hand, pat bread crumbs onto pork so that it adheres well.
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add enough oil to lightly coat the bottom of the skillet. Working in batches, add the pork and cook, turning once, until lightly browned and cooked through, about 5 mintues per side.
Serve with the aji, red beans, rice and sweet bananas (maduros) for an authentic Colombian dish.
