Method

  1. 1

    Cut a deep pocket into the side of each pork chop and season inside.

  2. 2

    Tuck a slice of parma ham and some fontina into each pocket and secure with a cocktail stick.

  3. 3

    Heat 2 tablespoons of the olive oil in a large frying pan and fry the chops for 5-6 minutes each side until golden, the cheese has melted and the pork is cooked through with no pink remaining.

  4. 4

    Toss the salad leaves with the lemon juice and remaining olive oil.

  5. 5

    Remove the cocktail sticks and serve the chops with the salad.
