CORDON BLEU PORK CHOPS

Category: Pork 1 - Chops and Steaks

4 bone-in pork loin chops (1 inch thick)
1/2 cup ketchup
1/2 cup water
1/4 cup white vinegar
2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
2 tbsp brown sugar
2 tbsp dried minced onion
1 tbsp soy sauce
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp ground mustard
4 thin slices fully cooked ham
4 thin slices part-skim mozzarella cheese

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.

Place a cheese slice on each slice of ham; roll up jelly-roll style. Drain pork and discard marinade. Insert a ham/cheese roll in each pocket; secure with soaked toothpicks.

Grill, covered, over medium heat, turning and basting occasionally with reserved marinade, for 25-35 minutes or until a meat thermometer reads 160 degrees. Remove toothpicks. Serves 4
