Ingredients

Prosciutto and pork loin rolls

Herb roasted potatoes

Preparation

In The Oven

Prosciutto and pork loin rolls

  1. Place oven rack in middle position. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. On a cutting board, remove excess fat from pork loin. Slice loin into 8 steaks, each about ¾ in. (2 cm) thick. Place steaks between two sheets of plastic wrap and flatten with a meat mallet until they are about ¼ in. (5 mm) thick. Remove plastic wrap. Season steaks with salt and pepper on both sides.
  3. Spread 2 to 3 slices of prosciutto on a work surface so they overlap slightly. Place pork cutlet onto prosciutto and cover with 1½ tbsp. (22 mL) pesto. Add Parmesan. Roll up and repeat with remaining ingredients.
  4. Place 4 rolls in a line. Push a long wooden skewer through the 4 rolls so there is approximately 1 in. (2.5 cm) of skewer at the end. Repeat from the other end of the rolls. You should be able to lift all 4 rolls at the same time. Adjust the rolls on the skewers so that there is little space between each roll. Repeat with remaining 4 rolls. Set aside.

Herb roasted potatoes

  1. In a bowl, combine oil, garlic, lemon zest and juice, and herbs.
  2. Place potatoes in a deep baking dish, about 13 in. x 9 in. (33 cm x 23 cm) and coat with oil mixture. Season with salt and pepper. Arrange potatoes evenly.
  3. Place pork rolls on the baking dish so that the wooden skewers hold the pork rolls up and they barely touch the potatoes.
  4. Bake until the internal temperature of the rolls reaches 160°F (71°C), about 30 minutes. Remove pork rolls from baking dish and transfer to a large plate. Cover with aluminum foil and keep warm. Increase oven temperature to 450°F (230°C).
  5. Stir potatoes and return to oven. Continue cooking for 30 minutes or until tender and golden brown.
  6. Serve skewers and potatoes on a large serving plate. Serve with green salad.
