Ingredients:

Serving

4 boneless pork chops (about 6 oz. each)
2 oz gorgonzola dolce cheese, cut into 4 chunks
1/3 cup chopped toasted hazelnuts
1 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
2 pears (about 8 oz. each), cored and cut into wedges
6 to 8 sprigs fresh thyme

Directions:

Preheat oven to 375°. Cut a horizontal pocket into the side of each pork chop.
Press cheese chunks into hazelnuts to coat, reserving nuts that don't stick. Push 1 cheese chunk into each pork chop pocket.
Heat oil in a 12-in. cast-iron or other ovenproof frying pan over high heat. Sear chops until browned, 2 minutes per side. Add pears and thyme to pan.
Bake until pork is firm but still slightly pink in the center, about 8 minutes. Sprinkle with reserved nuts.
