These stuffed pork rolls are made with pork loin steaks, chipotle paste, and prosciutto, then pan-seared until golden. An easy Mediterranean dinner with bold flavor.
Tenderize the 14 oz (400 g) pork loin steaks with a meat mallet until they reach an even thickness, then season one side with ½ teaspoon salt and ¼ teaspoon black pepper.
Spread the 3½ tablespoons (50 g) chipotle paste evenly over the pork, then place the 3½ oz (100 g) prosciutto on top.
Roll the pork tightly from one end, secure each roll with two toothpicks, then cut all the rolls in half.
Heat 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the pork rolls and cook for 2 to 3 minutes per side until browned on all sides.
Cover the skillet and cook for 3 minutes, until the pork is cooked through. Transfer to a plate, let them rest briefly, then serve hot with your favorite salad and sauce.
Notes
Flatten the Pork Evenly: I like to pound the pork well so it rolls easily and cooks evenly in the skillet.Use Thin Prosciutto: Thin slices wrap neatly around the chipotle layer without making the rolls too bulky.Give Them Space in the Pan: I like to avoid overcrowding the skillet so the pork rolls brown nicely instead of steaming.Let Them Rest Briefly: I like to let the rolls sit for a minute before serving so the juices settle and the slices stay neat.
