Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons butter
• 6 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 pinch freshly ground black pepper
• 1 teaspoon ground coriander
• 1 pound fresh spinach
• ½ teaspoon sea salt
• ½ cup shredded Parmesan cheese
• 1 tablespoon avocado oil
• 1 pinch smoked paprika
• 1 (3 pound) boneless pork roast

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Grease a shallow roasting pan with oil.

Step 2

Cut six to eight 1-inch-thick slices vertically into the roast, stopping at least 1/2 inch from the bottom.

Step 3

Heat butter and avocado oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add garlic; saute until soft. Add spinach, salt, and pepper; cook and stir until spinach is wilted, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat. Stir in Parmesan cheese and coriander until evenly incorporated.

Step 4

Stuff pork roast with spinach mixture, placing an equal amount between each slice. Sprinkle paprika over roast. Transfer to the prepared roasting pan.

Step 5

Bake in the preheated oven until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center reads at least 155 degrees F (68 degrees C), about 1 hour. Cover with aluminum foil and allow to rest for 10 minutes before slicing against the grain.
