Stuffed Pork Sandwich

Ingredients:

• 4 4-ounce boneless pork chops, 1/2 inch thick, trimmed
• 2 thin slices Swiss cheese, (1 ounce each), cut in half
• 4 dill pickle sandwich slices
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
• 1 tablespoon canola oil
• 4 whole-wheat hamburger buns, toasted
• 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
• 4 slices tomato
• 2 romaine lettuce leaves, cut in half

Directions:

• Cut each pork chop nearly in half horizontally, stopping short of the opposite side. Open each chop and place between sheets of plastic wrap. Pound with a meat mallet or heavy skillet until flattened to an even thickness, slightly thicker than 1/8 inch.
• Place a piece of cheese and a pickle slice on one side of each flattened chop. Fold the chop over the filling, closing it like a book. Press the edges firmly together to seal. Season both sides with salt and pepper.
• Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the stuffed chops, reduce heat to medium and cook until golden brown and cooked through, 3 to 5 minutes per side.
• To assemble sandwiches, spread the toasted buns with mustard and top each with a pork chop, tomato slice and lettuce.
