Prosciutto Wrapped Pork Chops...

So I cracked open one of my new cookbooks to search for a dinner for last night.  Scott gave me this for my birthday, so I figured he would appreciate a meal from here;)...

And I know (I KNOW) I have said that a lot of our meals have been "all-around perfect" lately...but I gotta tell ya: I ain't lyin!  They have been REALLY GOODDDDD....and here is yet ANOTHER one!  Pan Seared Prosciutto Pork Chops with Sage & Capers....

FLAVOR. EXPLOSION!  There are no other words to describe it!  Salty prosciutto with crispy sage, tangy/salty capers and a lemon/butter sauce...oh my!  And best of all, it took all of 20 minutes to make....

The recipe in brief: 

1. Wrap the trimmed pork chops with a slice of prosciutto.  Heat about a tablespoon of oil in a pan on high heat, add the pork chops and sear until cooked through. 
2. Remove the pork chops and add another tablespoon of oil to the pan.  Throw in about 12 sage leaves and let them cook for 1 minute.
3. Turn off heat and add 1 tablespoon of butter, the juice of 1 lemon and 2 tablespoons of drained capers and swirl until heated.
4. Drizzle over chops for an amazing dinner!

Fantastic!  I've never even used capers, but figured there are about 10,000 things I've never had and have tried since I moved in with Scott...so what's one more?? :)  And why didn't anyone tell me how good they are??  Those capers are little salt nuggets...and as a salt luvah, I did indeed enjoy them;) hahahahhaa....

As our side, I made some couscous with chicken broth and some curry powder for an extra flavor kick...

I rounded out our dinner with a side of steamed spinach.  And all I can say is:  GO HOME AND MAKE THIS!  YOU WILL LOVEEEEEE IT!  It was SO easy and had soo many amazing flavors in one dish!!  (And it looks sorta pretty too;)

Keeping with my 'salt theme' of the evening, I finished up the last of the sweet/salty Buckeye State Jeni's ice cream...delish! :)

Hope you have a great weekend!  Mine is packed with Family & Friend events, starting tonight with a family get together at my cousin's shore house...sooooo....hopefully I'll have a few good eats to show you!  And if it's anything like our LAST get together, where we ate for about 23 of the 24 hours we spent together, it shouldn't be a problem:)  It's the Italian way of saying "I love you" :)  hahahahahahahha.....

Have a good one!
