Stuffed Pork Chops With Ricotta And Spinach Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• In a skillet, heat the oil and brown the pork chops. Place the pork chops in a baking dish.
• In a bowl, toss the bread cubes, melted butter, chicken broth, celery, onion, and poultry seasoning together. Put heaping mounds of the bread crumb mixture onto the pork chops.
• Combine the cream of mushroom soup with the water, and pour this mixture over the stuffing and pork chops.
• Cover and bake for 30 minutes.
• Uncover and continue baking for 10 minutes longer or until juices run clear. The meat thermometer should read 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Coat a 9x13 inch baking dish with cooking spray.
• Lay each chop flat on cutting board, and with a sharp knife held parallel to the board, cut a pocket into the pork, leaving three sides intact. Stuff each chop with spinach, and then with cheese.
• Place panko crumbs in a shallow dish. Coat each chop with a thin layer of horseradish, and then roll in crumbs. Arrange chops in prepared baking dish. Sprinkle with Creole seasoning to taste.
• Bake in preheated oven for 45 minutes, or until brown and crispy.

Steps:

• Warm the 1 tablespoon olive oil in a medium saute pan over medium heat. Add the garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the sun-dried tomatoes, spinach, salt, pepper, and thyme. Cook until combined, about 2 more minutes. Transfer the mixture to a medium bowl. Add the goat cheese and the cream cheese. Stir to combine and set aside.
• Use a sharp knife to cut a pocket into the thickest portion of the pork chop. Stuff each pocket with 1/4 of the spinach and sun-dried tomato mixture and close the pork around the stuffing. Season the outside of the pork with salt and pepper.
• In a small bowl combine the chicken broth, lemon zest, lemon juice, and mustard.
• Warm the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large, heavy skillet over medium-high heat. When the pan is hot add the pork. Cook until golden and cooked through, about 4 minutes per side. Transfer the pork to a side dish and tent with foil to keep warm. Add the chicken broth mixture to the skillet over medium-high heat. Scrape up the brown bits from the bottom of the pan as the chicken broth simmers. Reduce the broth by half to make a light sauce, about 8 minutes. Spoon some sauce over the pork before serving.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F
• In a sauté pan melt better and 1 tablespoon of oil over medium-high heath. Add 2 tablespoons each of garlic and shallot, sauté until soft. Toss in the spinach; cook until wilted. Remove from pan to bowl and let cool.
• Finely chop spinach; return to bowl. Add 1 teaspoon of salt and pepper, the remaining garlic and shallot, and the Parmesan and ricotta cheeses. Mix well.
• Season chops on both sides with remaining salt and pepper: pat seasonings into meat. In a sauté pan heath 1/4 cup of the oil over medium-high heat. Brown chops on both sides in hot oil until golden brown. Remove from pan. Lay chops on their bone sides and cut down the middle of the meat side. Open chops and stuff with spinach mixture. Close chops, use toothpicks to hold both sides together. Tuck spinach back in with a fork if necessary.
• Coat a baking sheet with the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Place chops on prepared backing sheet. Back for 25 to 30 minutes or until cooked well.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
• Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onions and saute until translucent, about 7 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the breadcrumbs, salt, pepper and garlic powder. Stir in the beaten egg and parsley.
• To cut pockets into the pork chops, insert the point of a small sharp knife horizontally into the fat-covered edge. Move the knife back and forth to create a deep pocket about 1 1/2 inches wide.
• Fill the pocket of each chop with the breadcrumb mixture. Secure the openings with toothpicks.
• Place the flour in a shallow bowl. Dredge the stuffed chops lightly in the flour, shaking off the excess. Wipe out the skillet used previously for the stuffing and place it over medium-high heat. Add the oil and, when hot, add the chops. Sear over medium heat until lightly browned, about 3 minutes per side.
• Place a rack in a roasting or baking pan and add water, being careful not to cover the rack with water. Place the chops on the rack and cover the roaster with the lid or aluminum foil. Bake the chops for 1 hour. Let rest, remove the toothpicks and serve.

Steps:

• Rinse the chops under cold water and pat them dry with a paper towel. Use a sharp knife to make 1- to 2-inch slits on the sides of each chops to make space for the stuffing, then use your finger to make a little cave in each one. Rub each chop with olive oil and season them with salt and pepper to taste. Refrigerate the meat for 30 minutes. Steam the spinach until it turns deep green and wilts; this usually takes only a few minutes. (Alternately, you can microwave the spinach for two minutes.) Drain the spinach, and mix the warm greens with the ricotta cheese, garlic, and pesto to make the stuffing. Add salt and pepper to taste. Stuff the pork chops with about 1 tablespoon of stuffing each. Secure the pockets with toothpicks to hold the stuffing in place. Heat enough cooking oil to cover the bottom of a large frying pan on medium-high heat. Place the stuffed chops carefully in the pan and sear them on each side for 2 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium, cover and cook for 15 minutes or until cooked through. Remove them from the pan and let them rest for 5 minutes. Remove the toothpicks. Serve with mashed potatoes and corn or green beans and brown rice.

Steps:

• Cut a lengthwise slit down the center of the tenderloin to within 1/2 in. of bottom. Open tenderloin so it lies flat. On each half, make another, lengthwise slit down the center to within 1/2 in. of bottom; cover with plastic wrap. Flatten to 1/4-in. thickness. Remove plastic wrap; sprinkle pork with 1/4 teaspoon celery salt, 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Layer with the cheese, spinach and ham. Press down gently., Roll up jelly-roll style, starting with a long side. Tie the roast at 1-1/2-inch to 2-inch intervals with kitchen string. Sprinkle with remaining celery salt, garlic powder and pepper. Place on a rack in a shallow baking pan., Bake, uncovered, at 425° for 25-30 minutes or until a thermometer reads 160°. Transfer to a serving platter. Let stand for 10 minutes before slicing.
