Pork chops stuffed with spinach, goat’s cheese and sun-dried tomatoes

Method

1. Heat the oven to 180°C/160°C fan/gas 4. Heat a glug of olive oil in a small frying pan over a medium heat and fry the chopped shallot for 5-6 minutes until soft. Add garlic and fry for another minute, then remove to a small mixing bowl. Add the blanched spinach, chopped sun-dried tomatoes, lemon zest and goat’s cheese with a pinch of salt and pepper, then mix well to combine.
2. Remove the outer fat from the pork chops, then cut a slit along the side of each chop to form a pocket. Stuff the pockets carefully with the goat’s cheese mixture. Put the beaten egg on a lipped plate and breadcrumbs on another. Coat the pork chops in the egg, then the breadcrumbs.
3. Heat a glug of vegetable oil in a medium frying pan over a medium heat, then fry the pork chops for 3 minutes on each side until golden. Put the chops on a small baking tray and roast in the oven for 15-20 minutes until piping hot and cooked through. Serve with a baby leaf salad and lemon wedges to squeeze over.
