Ingredients
6 pork chops, about 6 ounces each
2 tablespoons butter
12 bay leaves, preferably fresh
6 thin slices baked ham
2 tablespoons fresh sage
1 cup Gruyere or Swiss cheese, shredded or sliced
Pepper, to taste
Instructions
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Brown chops in butter for 5 minutes. Remove from pan and pour off juices into a casserole dish. Line the dish with bay leaves. Put chops on top of bay leaves and cover each chop with a slice of ham. Finely chop the sage and sprinkle over ham. Sprinkle cheese over sage, cover casserole, and bake 25 minutes. Season with pepper before serving.
Tips From Our Test Kitchen: Steamed vegetable medley makes a super side dish. A sprig of sage is the perfect garnish for the pork chops.
