Grilled Prosciutto Wrapped Pork Chops Recipe

Recipe By The Spruce Eats

Pork chops are an extremely lean cut of meat, and prosciutto isnt all that fatty either, especially when it is sliced super thin, which is usually how its sold. But it does hold in the moisture of the quick-brined chops, add a salty-sweet-crisp exterior which kids seem to love, and make this into a dinner that is certainly not another grilled pork chop. Serve these with any kind of salsa for a simple dinner that looks like you put in a whole lot more effort than you did. I served it with summer tomato-corn relish, which some of the purists might pass on, but gives others a chance to amp up their meal. This would also go nicely with the simplest tomato, corn, and basil salad. This recipe is a quick grill recipe, but the opposite of grilling is slow cooking, so for another kinds of pork meal, try slow cooker barbecue pulled porkand roasting in the oven, is probably somewhere in between the two--a great pork example would be mediterranean pork tenderloin with roasted vegetables.
