1tspWorcestershire sauce, or soy sauce if you are in a pinch
1/2cupgrated parmesan cheese
Optional garnish:
chopped parsley
Instructions
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
Cut the pork tenderloin into 4 equal size pieces. Sandwich the pieces between two sheets of wax paper or parchment paper and use a meat mallet or heavy rolling pin (or a heavy pan) to pound the pork tenderloin pieces into thin steaks (about 1/4 inch thick).
Season with salt and pepper, then place two slices of Swiss cheese on top of each steak to cover it. Divide the ham between each steak and then fold over the pork to enclose the ham and cheese.
Add 1/4 cup of vegetable oil to a large oven safe skillet or dutch oven and heat over medium high heat.
In a small bowl whisk together 1/2 cup of flour, 1 tsp garlic powder, 1/2 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp black pepper. Place the beaten egg in another small bowl, and the panko bread crumbs in a third small bowl.
Carefully pick up the stuffed pork and lightly coat each side in the flour mixture, then dip in the egg mixture, followed by the panko bread crumbs to coat.
Once the oil is hot, place the pork in the skillet and cook for 2 to 3 minutes per side to form a golden brown crust. Place the skillet into the oven for an additional 7 to 10 minutes or until cooked through.
For the Sauce:
While the pork is finishing cooking prepare the sauce by melting the butter in a skillet over medium heat. Whisk in the flour, then gradually whisk in the milk and bouillon cube until smooth and it begins to thicken slightly (about 3 to 5 minutes).
Remove from heat and stir in the remaining sauce ingredients, whisking until smooth and creamy. Serve hot over the pork and garnish with chopped parsley and freshly cracked black pepper if desired.
