PREPARATION
1. Preheat oven to 400ºF/200ºC.

3. Add the washed spinach. Cook until wilted.
4. Add the cream cheese, salt, and pepper, and stir until melted. Set aside and allow to cool.
5. Make a slit on the side of the pork chop, making a pocket but not cutting all the way through.
6. Fill the pork chop with the spinach mixture. Season with salt and pepper both sides.
7. In a hot pan, sear the pork chop, until golden brown on both sides.
8. Move pork chop to a baking sheet and bake for 20 minutes, or until pork is cooked through.
