Time 25m

Yield 3-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

6 thin pork chops, trimmed of excess fat
6 slices prosciutto
1/2 lemon
2 garlic cloves, finely minced
2 tablespoons chopped fresh sage
1/4 cup vermouth or 1/4 cup dry white wine
1/2 cup chicken stock
3 tablespoons butter
black pepper

Steps:

  • Wrap each pork chop in a strip of prosciutto and press flat until the prosciutto sticks. Generously grind pepper on both sides of the prosciutto wrapped pork chop.
  • Heat two tablespoons of butter in a large cast iron skillet over medium high heat; add the pork chops. Cook for 2 minutes (or more, depending upon thickness) on each side and remove to a plate. The prosciutto should be golden brown and slightly crispy.
  • Pour the vermouth into the skillet used to cook the pork chops, scrape the brown bits off the bottom of the pan and let the vermouth reduce to about 1/2 the original amount. Add the chicken stock, sage, garlic, and juice from the lemon, along with a few grinds of pepper. Let the sauce reduce to half then add the last tablespoon of butter , add the pork chops till coated in sauce.
