Preparation
To prepare the pork slices in milk, first slice the pork loin into pieces just under 3/8 inch thick, then lightly flatten them with a meat mallet.
Quickly coat them in flour, shaking off any excess.
In a large pan heat the extra virgin olive oil and when hot, place the pork slices side by side without overlapping. Cook them for two minutes per side, turning with kitchen tongs, not a fork which would pierce the meat.
Once the pork slices in milk are browned on all sides, add the milk and the previously chopped fresh herbs, turn the meat to season it and continue cooking over low heat for another 8 minutes, turning a couple of times.
When cooked, season with salt and add the chili pepper cut into thin slices, turn the meat again and if the sauce is too liquid, raise the heat to high to let it reduce.
Then with the heat off, let the pork slices in milk rest for 5 minutes.
Arrange two slices per plate, drizzle with the cooking juices and..
