### Ingredients
- 4 bone-in pork chops, about 1-inch thick
- 1 cup breadcrumbs
- 1 small onion, diced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 cup spinach, chopped
- 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1/2 cup chicken broth
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a large skillet over medium heat, add 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Sauté the diced onion and minced garlic until they’re translucent and fragrant, about 3-5 minutes.
- Add the chopped spinach to the skillet and cook until wilted, around 2 minutes. Remove from heat.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the sautéed vegetables with breadcrumbs, mozzarella cheese, Parmesan cheese, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined.
- Using a sharp knife, create a pocket in each pork chop by slicing into the side. Be careful not to cut all the way through.
- Stuff each pork chop generously with the breadcrumb mixture. You can secure the opening with toothpicks if necessary.
- In the same skillet, add another tablespoon of olive oil and sear each stuffed pork chop for about 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown.
- Transfer the pork chops to a baking dish and pour the chicken broth around them.
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C).
- Remove from the oven and allow to rest for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy your delicious and juicy stuffed pork chops!
