Spoonacular is a recipe search engine that sources recipes from across the web. We do our best to find recipes suitable for many diets — whether vegetarian, vegan, gluten free, dairy free, etc. — but we cannot guarantee that a recipe's ingredients are safe for your diet. Always read ingredient lists from the original source (follow the link from the "Instructions" field) in case an ingredient has been incorrectly extracted from the original source or has been labeled incorrectly in any way. Moreover, it is important that you always read the labels on every product you buy to see if the product could cause an allergic reaction or if it conflicts with your personal or religious beliefs. If you are still not sure after reading the label, contact the manufacturer.

We also attempt to estimate the cost and calculate the nutritional information for the recipes found on our site. Again, we cannot guarantee the accuracy of this information. Additionally, our nutrition visualizer that suggests that you limit sodium, sugar, etc., and get enough protein, vitamins, and minerals is not intended as medical advice. Similarly, our health tips are based on articles we have read from various sources across the web, and are not based on any medical training. The team behind spoonacular does not possess any medical qualifications and the information may be found to be incorrect or out of date based on future research.

Instructions

Warm the 1 tablespoon olive oil in a medium saute pan over medium heat and add the garlic and cook about 1 minute. Add the sun-dried tomatoes, spinach, salt, pepper, and thyme. Cook until combined, for 2 more minutes. Transfer the mixture to a medium bowl and add the feta and the cream cheese. Stir to combine and set aside. Thinly beat with a meat mallet each chop. Place of the spinach and sun-dried tomato mixture on the each chop, fold in half and secure with a wooden or metal toothpick. Season the outside of the pork with pepper. In a small bowl combine the chicken broth, lemon zest, lemon juice, and mustard. Warm the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large, heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Add the pork and cook for 5 minutes per side until golden and cooked through. Transfer the pork to a side dish and tent with foil to keep warm. Add the chicken broth mixture to the skillet over medium-high heat. Scrape up the bottom of the pan and cook for 8 minutes to reduce the broth by half. Before serving spoon some sauce over the pork. *Cook spinach in a microwave oven with 2 tablespoons water for 2 minutes on MAX (this way you preserve all the vitamins).
