Balsamic Pork Scallopini Over Creamy Noodles
Balsamic Pork Scallopini Over Creamy Noodles – delicious creamy noodles with balsamic pork scallopini that the entire family will enjoy!Â
When my husband heard I was making noodles again he was very disappointed, but then he saw this dish and how great it looked and he was hooked. He could not stop eating this amazing pork scallopini with these creamy noodles.
So trust me, I say, I never steer you wrong. If you don’t eat pork this would be just as delicious with chicken breast.
So let me tell you a bit about this dish, besides the fact that it’s super delicious and we ate the whole thing in one sitting, it was also fairly easy to make. I’m not a huge fan of balsamic but if you are you can definitely add more balsamic vinegar to the dish. The great thing about the balsamic vinegar is that as it cooks it reduces down and it sweetens the sauce a bit. The balsamic sauce was amazing, you can pour any leftover sauce over your noodles or just dip some bread into it, it’s fantastic.
The noodles are so creamy and cheesy, they’re to die for. Pair these two together and you have one amazing dinner.

I know this came out a few years ago but I just found it! I made it and the sauce the pork was cooked in didn’t thicken at all. It’s all liquid. The pork is nice and tender but there was no sauce for it. Did I do something wrong?
jo says
I’m not sure I understand what happened, you’re saying the sauce didn’t thicken, it’s shouldn’t really thicken much since you’re not adding any flour to it, so it should still be somewhat liquid, but the noodles will soak it up.
Kelly says
Ohhhh ok, then I did it right! Lol. Thank you for confirming!!

Just wondering what beef you would use as my partner is allergic to pork. Thanks it sounds great
jo says
Hi Cheryl,
You could use some top round steaks.
Ashley says
I made this the other night and it was pretty much the best pork recipe I’ve ever had. I used pork tenderloin that I cut into medallions. Instead of breading & frying, I seasoned them and just did a quick sear. The combined creamy sauce & braising liquid was the best. I will be making this again and again! Just fantastic
jo says
Glad you liked it Ashley. 🙂

Good morning, Miss Jo! I just can’t resist not to try this for dinner tonight! I will however change pork to lamb or chicken or perhaps beef since pork is not available here in KSA. Anyway, thanks for sharing this recipe and I am sure that I will like it just like the rest! The dinner last time went very, very well they liked the food and asked for the recipes. Thanks and have a nice day!
