It is not customary to pre-marinate and bread classic escalopes, but today there are many options for preparing this delicious dish, including using various marinades, sauces and types of breading.
Recipe for cooking pork escalopes in a slow cooker
To cook pork escalopes in a slow cooker, you will need the following products:
- 4 pork escalopes;
