Ingredients 2 tablespoons olive oil 2 cloves garlic, chopped 1 bag (6 ounces) baby spinach 1/2 teaspoon salt 1/4 teaspoon black pepper 1/2 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning 1/4 pound capocollo (spicy Italian ham), cut into small dice 1/4 pound provolone cheese, cut into small dice 1 egg, lightly beaten 4 thick-cut (1 1/4 to 1 1/2 inches) pork chops for stuffing (about 2 to 2 1/2 pounds total) Directions Heat 1 tablespoon oil in large saucepan over medium heat. Add garlic; cook, stirring occasionally, 1 minute. Add spinach, 1/4 teaspoon salt, 1/8 teaspoon pepper and the Italian seasoning; cook, stirring, just until spinach is wilted, about 2 minutes. Remove the spinach mixture to a medium-size bowl; let cool completely. When cool, add the capocollo, provolone cheese and egg; gently stir to combine completely. Place the pork chops on a flat work surface; cut a slit horizontally to the bone so chop can be opened like a book. Stuff each chop with 1/4 of the stuffing. (If freezing, wrap each chop tightly in freezer wrap, without toothpicks; freeze up to 1 month.) Secure chops with toothpicks. To cook and serve: If chops are frozen, thaw in refrigerator overnight. Preheat oven to 375 degree F. Heat remaining 1 tablespoon oil in large skillet. Add chops; cook 2 minutes per side or until browned. Place chops in single layer in a baking dish just large enough to hold them. Sprinkle with remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/8 teaspoon pepper. Bake the chops in the oven for 15 minutes or until the internal temperature registers 155 degrees on an instant-read thermometer when inserted in the pork. Remove chops to a platter; cover with foil. Let stand 5 to 10 minutes in warm place before serving. Print Recipe Browse Similar Recipes Read more at: foodnetwork/recipes/food-network-on-demand/stuffed-pork-chops-recipe/index.html?oc=linkback
