Instructions
- Using a knife, cut a pocket into the pork chop to stuff with a mixture made by blending the Ragusan cheese, dried tomatoes, bread crumbs, and herbs.
- If available, a better result is achieved by inserting the stuffed meat into a vacuum machine to compact the ingredients.
- Near the end of cooking, add the dates and cook together.
- After this phase, coat the meat in the remaining bread crumbs, season, fry, and let rest for a few minutes.
- After plating the meat and topping with the previously prepared sauce, add sautéed rapini with oil, garlic, and chili, and grate dark chocolate on top.
