It’s another Date Night! Carve out some time for you and your honey to enjoy a home cooked restaurant-style entree. Thick and juicy pork chops stuffed with Jamón Serrano & Manchego cheese and seasoned with the flavors of Spain. Pour a nice glass of Spanish Rioja and enjoy these delicious Spanish Stuffed Pork Chops along with some much needed time alone with your date…
Spanish Stuffed Pork Chops
2 thick pork chops, bone-in
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 teaspoon oregano
1 teaspoon parsley
pinch saffron
2 slices Jamón Serrano
1/4 lb Manchego cheese, sliced
extra virgin olive oil
salt & pepper
Heat oven to 400°F. Using a very sharp knife, cut a pocket into each thick pork chop. Combine the oregano, parsley, saffron & garlic and press into both sides of pork chops. Wrap 4 slices of Manchego cheese into one of the slices of Jamón Serrano and stuff into the pocket of the pork chop. Repeat with remaining pork chop.
Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a cast iron skillet until very hot. Sear the pork chops 1 minute on the first side.
Turn the pork chops over and sear for one minute of the second side. Then place the cast iron skillet in the heated oven and roast pork chops for 6 minutes. Turn pork chops over and place back in the oven for 4 minutes.
Remove from the oven and cover with aluminum foil. Allow to rest for a few minutes to redistribute the juices. This is great served with Sautéed Skillet Potatoes and a salad. Enjoy!
Enjoy!
