      Title: Cheese & Spinach-Stuffed Pork Chops
 Categories: Pork, Greens, Vegetables, Herbs, Cheese
      Yield: 4 Servings
 
      2 tb Olive oil
      2 cl Garlic; chopped
      6 oz Bag baby spinach
    1/2 ts Salt
    1/4 ts Black pepper
    1/2 ts Dried Italian seasoning
    1/4 lb Capocollo (spicy Italian
           - ham); in small dice
    1/4 lb Provolone cheese; in small
           - dice
      1 lg Egg; lightly beaten
      4    (1 1/2" thick) pork chops
           - for stuffing
 
  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 bone so chop can be opened like a book.
  Stuff each chop with quarter of 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. Heat oven to 375ºF/190ºC.
  
  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 chops. Sprinkle with remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt
  and 1/8 teaspoon pepper.
  
  Bake the chops in 375ºF/190ºC oven for 15 minutes or until
  the internal temperature registers 155 degrees F on
  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.
  
  Makes 4 servings.
