Cordon Bleu Pork Chops
TOTAL TIME: Prep: 15 min. + marinating Grill: 10 min.
YIELD: 4 servings.
This recipe is a variation of one I found in a church cookbook. I prepare these cheesy chops year-round...on vacation, at tailgate parties or at home.
Ingredients
-
4 bone-in pork loin chops (1 inch thick)
-
1/2 cup ketchup
-
1/2 cup water
-
1/4 cup white vinegar
-
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
-
2 tablespoons brown sugar
-
2 tablespoons dried minced onion
-
1 tablespoon soy sauce
-
1 tablespoon lemon juice
-
1 teaspoon garlic powder
-
1 teaspoon ground mustard
-
4 thin slices fully cooked ham
-
4 thin slices part-skim mozzarella cheese
Directions
-
1.
Cut a pocket in each chop. Combine the next 10 ingredients. Reserve 1/2 cup for basting and refrigerate. Pour remaining marinade into a large resealable plastic bag or shallow glass container. Add pork and turn to coat. Seal bag or cover container; refrigerate overnight, turning meat occasionally.
-
2.
Place a cheese slice on each slice of ham; roll up jelly-roll style. Drain pork and discard marinade in bag. Insert a ham/cheese roll in each pocket; secure with soaked toothpicks.
-
3.
Grill, covered, over medium heat, for 4-5 minutes on each side or until a thermometer reads 145°, basting occasionally with reserved marinade. Let meat stand for 5 minutes before serving. Discard toothpicks.
