Yield 5 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

olive oil, to taste
¼ cup onion, minced
2 cloves garlic, minced
7 oz spinach, washed
6 oz cream cheese, cubed
salt, to taste
pepper, to taste
5 thick-cut pork chops
mashed potato, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
  • Heat the olive oil in a medium pan over medium heat. Add the onion and sauté until translucent, about 2 minutes. Add the garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.
  • Add the spinach and cool until wilted.
  • Add the cream cheese and stir until melted. Season with salt and pepper. Remove the pan from the heat and let cool.
  • Make a slit on the side of each pork chop to make a pocket, but do not cut all the way through.
  • Fill the pork chops with the spinach mixture. Season with salt and pepper on both sides.
  • Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Working in batches, sear the pork chops until golden brown on both sides. Transfer to a baking sheet.
  • Bake the pork chops for 20 minutes, or until cooked through.
  • Serve the pork chops with mashed potatoes.
  • Enjoy!
