I'm not a big fan of pork chops but my husband loves them. I decided to attempt to make this recipe for him with a pork tenderloin I had. I cut it in thick pieces stuffed it with the sun dried tomatoes, spinach cream cheese stuffing. I don't like goat cheese, so like some others have said, I used Feta. These were fabulous. We both loved these "chops" and I have found a new recipe that I can use to make pork with so that I not only tolerate it, but that I love the dinner. Thanks to Giada.

The ingredients tasted very well together, but i cooked these 5 minutes on each side and they were still raw in the middle. I would suggest very thin pork chops or longer cooking times.

I thought they turned out great! I decided not to use goat cheese and then I couldn't find sun dried tomatoes at the store and the recipe still turned out great. I had some spinach stuffing left over and thought about making a dip or something out of it, my friends loved the pork chops!

1. They did take longer to cook than recipe calls for if you get thick center-cut chops.
2. I don't think the lemon juice/zest added much to the flavor
3. The goat cheese mixture seemed bland, maybe spice it up a little?
4. Also the spinach/goat cheese mixture, b/c of the goat cheese, seems to be the predominant flavor, and you miss the flavor of the chops...maybe doing ricotta, or something else???

I dont eat meat but made them for my husband and he raved about them. One note though depending on your stovetop temperature they took a lot longer than the receipe directed and I had to put them in the oven for some time. I just added more chicken stock to the pan so they didnt dry out when in the oven. My husband said they were SUPER FLAVORFUL!

I made this dish for my family last night and my 15 year old son said, "I would pay $75 to eat this dish at Canlis!" Coming from a boy who earns every dime he gets caring for our neighbor's pets, that was a great complement! I loved the stuffing, and the reduction sauce was over-the-top fantastic. We poured it over our chops AND our mashed potatoes. I'm making it again tonight (I'm a glutton for complements.

We thought the stuffing for these pork chops was wonderful. I used fresh spinach instead of frozen, but otherwise followed the recipe. I had trouble keeping the stuffing inside the pork when I turned them, and the pork was underdone. But I would try this again and cook the chops longer.

These decadent pork chops didn't last long on my table! Yes, there was a bit of prep work, but the combination of creamy cheeses with the thyme, sun-dried tomatoes and spinach stuffed inside tender pork chops made this splendid meal worth the extra effort. I used a thinner-cut pork chop than Giada recommended and they still came out juicy.
