Directions
-
Preheat your oven to 400ðF (200ðC).
-
Pat the pork steaks dry with paper towels and season lightly with salt and pepper if desired.
-
Wrap each pork steak tightly with slices of bacon, securing with toothpicks if necessary.
-
Heat an oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat and sear the bacon-wrapped steaks for 3-4 minutes per side until the bacon is golden brown.
-
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the pork reaches an internal temperature of 145ðF (63ðC).
-
While the meat cooks, whisk together the milk and lemon juice in a small bowl until slightly curdled.
-
Remove the skillet from the oven and spoon the milk-lemon mixture over the steaks.
-
Return to the oven for 2-3 minutes to allow the glaze to warm and coat the meat.
-
Let the steaks rest for 5 minutes before slicing and serving with the pan juices.
