Categories Pork

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 boneless pork chops, each 3/4 to 1 inch thick and 6 to 7 oz.
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper, to taste
8 fresh sage leaves
8 thin prosciutto slices
Olive oil for brushing
Stuffed artichokes with pine nuts and currants for serving (see related recipe at left)
Balsamic vinegar for drizzling

Steps:

Preheat an electric indoor grill to 400°F. Season the pork chops on both sides with salt and pepper. Top each chop with 2 sage leaves and wrap with 2 prosciutto slices. Lightly brush the chops on both sides with olive oil. Arrange the chops on the grill and cook, turning once, until nicely grill-marked and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of the meat registers 140°F, 6 to 7 minutes per side. Transfer the chops to a warmed platter, cover loosely with aluminum foil and let rest for 10 minutes. Serve the chops with stuffed artichokes, lightly drizzled with balsamic vinegar. Serves 4.
