🥘Ingredients

For the Stuffing

1 tbsp olive oil
1 small onion, finely chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 cups fresh spinach, chopped
1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
1/2 cup heavy cream
salt and pepper to taste

For the Pork Roast

1.5 kg boneless pork loin roast
1 tsp dried thyme
1 tsp dried rosemary
salt and pepper to taste
2 tbsp olive oil

👨‍🍳Directions

1Preheat the oven to 375°F.
2In a pan, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat.
3Add the finely chopped onion and cook until translucent, about 5 minutes.
4Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1 minute until fragrant.
5Add the chopped spinach and cook until wilted, about 2-3 minutes.
6Remove from heat and stir in the crumbled feta cheese and heavy cream.
7Season with salt and pepper to taste.
8Set the spinach mixture aside to cool.
9Using a sharp knife and cutting board, carefully cut a pocket into the side of the pork loin roast, being careful not to cut all the way through.
10Season the outside of the pork with dried thyme, dried rosemary, salt, and pepper.
11Stuff the cooled spinach and feta mixture into the pocket of the pork loin.
12Tie the pork roast with kitchen twine to secure the stuffing inside.
13Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat.
14Sear the pork roast on all sides until browned, about 3-4 minutes per side.
15Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and roast for 45 to 55 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F.
16Use a meat thermometer to check the temperature in the thickest part of the roast.
17Remove the pork roast from the oven and let it rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing.
18This allows the juices to redistribute throughout the meat.
19Slice the pork roast into thick slices, revealing the creamy spinach and feta stuffing.
20Serve hot and enjoy.
