Grilled Stuffed Veal Chops

Ingredients:

• 4 (8-10 oz.) bone-in veal chops, about 1 inch thick
• 2 tsp. extra-virgin olive oil, plus extra for grill
• 1/8 tsp. salt
• 1/8 tsp. freshly ground black pepper
• 1/4 cup crumbled reduced-fat feta cheese (1 oz.)
• 1/4 cup roasted red bell peppers (from a jar)
• 1 tsp. dried basil

Makes 4 Servings

1. Heat a grill or grill pan to medium-high.
2. With a sharp paring knife, carefully cut a slit into the side of 1 veal chop to make a pocket for the filling, leaving a 1-inch border on three sides. Repeat with remaining chops. Rub chops with 2 teaspoons oil and season with salt and pepper.
3. Combine cheese, bell peppers and basil in a small bowl. Spoon about 2 tablespoons into each chop. Brush grill with oil and grill chops 5 minutes per side for medium. Serve hot.

Note: This recipe appears in the South Beach Diet Quick & Easy Cookbook. This is what Mediterranean on the grill tastes like: Delicious! Grilled veal is delicious when it's done right. The peppers and cheese makes the veal more flavorful. You can use any kind of cheese such as goat cheese, gorgonzola, mozzarella, Asiago or any other Mediterranean flavored cheese and your chops will still be delicious. You can even use pork chops in place of the veal chops and the meal will still be tasty.
