Stuffed Pork Chops

boneless pork chops (approximately 1-1 1/4 lbs)

oil tomato

spinach leaves

mozzarella cheese

Italian seasoning

salt

pepper

olive oil

parsley (chopped)

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.

Slice a deep pocket into each pork chop, but do not cut all the way through.&nbsp;

Divide the sun dried tomatoes evenly between the pockets in the pork chops, then layer in a handful of spinach leaves and 2 tablespoons of cheese.

Use toothpicks to seal each pork chop shut so that the filling will not spill out during the cooking process.

Sprinkle the Italian seasoning, salt and pepper over both sides of each pork chop.

Heat the olive oil in a large pan over medium high heat. Cook the pork chops for 3-4 minutes on each side or until golden brown.&nbsp;

Insert a thermometer into the thickest part of the pork chop. Place the pan of pork chops in the oven.

Bake for 8-10 minutes or until the thermometer registers 145 degrees F.

Remove the pan from the oven and let the pork stand for 3 minutes. Sprinkle with parsley, then serve.

These Italian Pork Chops require just a few ingredients and are baked in the oven with loads of veggies. Have it ready and on the table in just 30 minutes!
