Ingredients

2 Thick-Cut, Boneless Pork Chops
4 Slices Deli-Cut Sliced Ham
4 Slices Muenster Cheese
½ C. All Purpose Flour
3 Lg. Eggs
½ C. Panko Breadcrumbs
1 Tbsp. Kosher Salt
½ Tbsp. Black Pepper
2-3 Tbsp. Olive Oil

Instructions

Gather your ingredients.
Set up a breading station, with three shallow dishes to hold the flour, eggs and breadcrumbs, separately.
Place the pork chops into the plastic bag (alternatively, in between two large pieces of plastic wrap). Using a meat mallet or a wooden rolling pin, gently tenderize and flatten the chops until fairly thin, but be careful to ensure there are no tears or translucent spots on the meat. Season the chops with a little salt and pepper.
Begin layering slices of ham and cheese over each portion of tenderized pork.
Starting at the edge closest to you, roll the meat up, tucking as you go to ensure the roll stays secure with the filling inside, and set aside.
Grab the breading station. Whisk the eggs, then season all three components with the remaining salt and pepper.
Roll each pork roulade, first in the flour, then the egg, and finally, the breadcrumbs, ensuring that you have coated the entire portion, including the ends.
Heat a few tablespoons of oil in a medium sauté pan over medium-high heat.

Keep in mind that olive oil has a lower smoke point before burning, so you don't want to get the pan too hot.

Carefully, begin to sear the roulades in the hot oil, a few minutes per side, until golden brown. Don't forget to sear the ends as well. When fully cooked, the internal temperature of the meat should be at 165℉.
Hold warm in a preheated oven before serving. Allow to cool slightly before slicing to ensure the filling doesn't melt out.
