- 1 tsp (5 mL) grated fresh ginger
- 1 cup (250 mL) fresh spinach, coarsely chopped

- 4 10-ounce (280 g) pork loin or rib chops cut 1" (2.5 cm) thick

Directions

Step one
To make stuffing, melt butter in a non-stick skillet, add mushrooms, onion and ginger, cook until onion is tender and juices have evaporated. Remove from heat, add spinach and breadcrumbs and season with salt and pepper.
-
Step two
Make a pocket in each chop by cutting horizontally from the fat side almost to the bone. Spoon one fourth of the stuffing mixture into each pocket. Secure the opening with wooden toothpicks. Season chops with additional salt and pepper.
-
Step three
In a large ovenproof skillet, heat oil, sauté pork chops on both sides until well-browned.
-
Step four
Pour VH® Honey Garlic Cooking Sauce over chops, cover and bake in a preheated 350°F (170°C) oven for 30-35 minutes or until the centre of the meat registers 160°F (80°C) on an instant read thermometer.

Step five
To serve, place chops on dinner plates, garnish with green onions
