Como fazer Creamy Mediterranean Sauce For Pork Chicken Or Lamb

  1. **Sauté Aromatics:** Heat 2 tablespoons (or 1 tablespoon for nonstick pan) of olive oil in a medium sauté pan over medium-high heat. Add 1 medium onion, chopped, and cook for 2 minutes.
  2. **Build the Flavor:** Add 2 tablespoons capers, ½ cup pitted Kalamata olives (halved), and 8 ounces cremini mushrooms (sliced). Cook for another 2 minutes, stirring to combine.
  3. **Deglaze the Pan:** Pour in ½ cup dry white wine, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Cook for 1 minute to reduce the wine.
  4. **Create the Sauce:** Reduce heat to medium. Stir in 1 (28-ounce) can crushed tomatoes, 1 (14-ounce) can artichoke hearts (drained and quartered), and ½ cup heavy cream. Season generously with salt and freshly ground black pepper (start with ½ teaspoon salt, adjust to taste).
  5. **Simmer to Perfection:** Simmer over medium-low heat for 10 minutes, or until the sauce slightly thickens. Do not overcook; this is not meant to be a thick gravy.
  6. **Prepare the Protein:** While the sauce simmers, marinate your choice of pork, chicken, or lamb (about 1 lb) in bottled Greek salad dressing for at least 4 hours or overnight. Then pan-sear, broil, bake, or grill until cooked through.
  7. **Serve and Enjoy:** Spoon the creamy Mediterranean sauce over your cooked protein, served over rice, orzo, pasta, couscous, or even a baked potato topped with feta cheese. Garnish with fresh basil, if desired.
