The marinated pork loin strip is one of the most valued parts of the pig, originating from the Community of Madrid. It is obtained by separating the meat from the ribs, cutting at the level of the sixth lumbar vertebra, giving it an elongated shape. Its proximity to the shoulder provides an exceptional flavor and a tender texture, making it ideal for a variety of recipes in the kitchen. This cut can be found either dry or marinated; in this case, we are talking about the marinated version, which adds extra flavor to dishes. For storage, it is recommended to keep it in the refrigerator, where it can last 2 to 3 days. Before cooking, it is advisable to take it out one to two hours in advance. When preparing, it is suggested to cut the fillets into thick pieces to ensure that the inside remains juicy while cooking. The ideal technique is to sear the fillets on a hot plate and once browned, lower the heat to allow it to cook through without losing juiciness. It is a versatile cut that can be adapted to various recipes ranging from roasted to grilled fillets.
