Double
Pork Chops with Ham and Manchego
This
pork chop recipe really requires a butchers cut, the chops
are sliced double thick so get two chops in one, nice and
thick and great for stuffing with whatever takes your fancy.
For this recipe we stuffed the chops with thin slices of
Serrano ham and an equal amount of thinly slice Manchego
cheese and some sage leaves for good measure. The result
was a slow baked dish packed with flavour, oozing with manchego
with a hint of garden sage. Lovely!
You
will need:
4
Double cut pork chops
4 Slices Serrano ham
8 Slices Manchego cheese
6 Sage leaves
Cracked black pepper
Olive oil

a pocket into the side of the double chops being careful
not to pierce through the meat.

both sides of meat with plenty of pepper.
