BLUE CHEESE STUFFED PORK LOIN CHOPS

Steps:

• With a sharp knife, make a horizontal slit in one of the wide sides of each chop but do not cut completely through to any of the other sides.
• Use the knife, your finger, or the handle portion of a wooden spoon to expand the void in the chop as large as possible.
• The goal is to make a pocket for the cheese (picture a coin purse, where only the top is open).
• Use as much of the cheese as is necessary to fill the pocket.
• Secure with toothpicks in such a way that the chops will still lay levelly in a pan.
• Heat olive oil in a saute pan.
• Make several slices through the garlic yet keeping each clove intact.
• Fry in the oil till brown but not burned, then remove from pan.
• Season chops with salt, pepper, and thyme.
• Brown the chops in the oil on each side.
• The cheese will probably begin to melt and leak from the chop, but don't worry about this.
• When chops are well browned, add the wine (as much as necessary to come about halfway up the sides of the chops) to the saute pan, cover and simmer for 5-10 minutes or until they are cooked through.
• Remove them from pan directly to dinner plate.
• Stir the cheese that has leaked out from the chops well into the wine and cooking juices, still over the heat, until you have a well-incorporated sauce.
• This should only take a moment.
• Serve sauce over the chops immediately, and enjoy.
