1

Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit (190 degrees Celsius).

2

In a skillet over medium heat, add 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Once hot, add 1 pound of pork loin, seasoned with salt and pepper. Sear the pork for about 5 to 7 minutes on each side until golden brown.

3

Remove the pork from the skillet and let it rest. In the same skillet, add 2 cloves of minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.

4

Chop the broccoli into small florets and add it to the skillet. Sauté for about 5 minutes until the broccoli is bright green and tender.

5

In a mixing bowl, combine 1 cup of cheddar cheese and 4 ounces of cream cheese. Mix until well blended.

6

Slice the pork into thin strips and add it to the bowl with the cheese mixture along with the sautéed broccoli. Mix everything together until combined.

7

Transfer the mixture into a baking dish.

8

Sprinkle 1 cup of bread crumbs over the top. Bake in the preheated oven for about 15 minutes, until the top is golden brown and the cheese is bubbling.

9

Remove from the oven and let cool for a couple of minutes before serving.
