Kat's Prosciutto Chops

6 bone in, center cut pork chops 
 ¼ pound of thinly sliced Parma Prosciutto 
 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary leaves, rough chop 
 1 tablespoon fresh sage leaves, rough chop 
 ¼ tablespoon freshly crushed black pepper 
 ¼ cup extra virgin olive oil 
       DIRECTIONS
       Preheat oven to 375 to 400°. Center cut pork chops should be at least 1½-inches thick and fat trimmed away from bone. Season each side of pork chop evenly with rosemary, sage and cracked black pepper. (Note: Do not season with salt due to Prosciutto’s salty nature). Take 2 pieces of thinly sliced Prosciutto and wrap one continuous band around each pork chop until Prosciutto meets. After all pork chops have been wrapped, heat 10-inch, preferably non-stick sauté pan, to medium-high heat and brown pork chops evenly on both sides (approximately 2 minutes). Place all pork chops on sheet pan and cook in preheated oven for approximately 15 to 20 minutes for medium; 30 minutes for well down. 

Anger is a killing thing: it kills the man who angers, for each rage leaves him less than he had been before - it takes something from him.
