stuffed pork rolls with lemon

Flatten the schnitzels and season with salt and pepper. Spread half of the lemon zest over the schnitzels. Place a slice of Parma ham and a basil leaf on top. Roll up and secure with a toothpick. Sear the involtini on all sides, then keep warm in the oven and let them cook for a while. Add the lemon liqueur, cream, and stock to the pan juices. Add the remaining lemon zest and lemon juice. Season with salt, pepper, and sugar and simmer until a creamy sauce forms. Use a sauce thickener, if desired. This goes very well with tagliatelle. Garnish with basil leaves, and you’re done.
