Ingrediencie

4 boneless thick pork chops

½ tsp black pepper

½ tsp salt

½ tsp paprika

8 oz cream cheese

1 cup fresh spinach

1 tbsp garlic

1 tsp black pepper

½ tsp salt

1 tsp onion powder

½ tsp paprika

½ cup parmesan cheese

Postup

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.

Season all sides of each pork chop with salt, pepper, and paprika.

Using a sharp paring knife, cut a pocket lengthwise in each pork chop. Be careful not to cut all the way through, you don’t want the stuffing to spill out the bottom or on the sides.

In a medium-sized bowl, add the cream cheese, garlic, parmesan cheese, onion powder, salt, pepper, paprika, and spinach.

Mix the stuffing ingredients together.

Fill the pork chops with the stuffing. I like them really stuffed. But you can actually get 6 pork chops filled if you use less stuffing, so it’s up to you.

Heat the skillet with a little bit of avocado oil.

Once the oil is starting to sizzle, gently place a pork chop into the pan standing upright. Sear the bottom, then flip and sear on both sides. They only need a minute or so on each side.

Transfer to a plate, and repeat with remaining pork chops. You don’t want to cook more than 2 pork chops at a time so as to not overcrowd them.

Transfer all the pork chops back into the skillet.

Place in the oven for 15-20 minutes. You want the internal temperature to be at least 145 degrees.

Remove the stuffed pork chops from the oven and let rest 3-5 minutes before cutting.
