Ingredients

• 1 cup penne pasta, uncooked
• 2 bone-in pork chops (3/4 lb), 1/2" thick
• 1/4 cup Kraft Classic Caesar Dressing, divided
• 1/2 cup shredded Parmesan cheese, divided
• 1 cup baby spinach leaves
• 2 cloves garlic, chopped
• 1/2 cup halved cherry tomatoes

Preparation

Step 1

Cook pasta in large saucepan as directed on package, omitting salt.

Meanwhile, brush both sides of chops evenly with 2 Tbsp dressing. Dip in half the cheese, turning to coat both sides of each chop. Heat large nonstick skillet on medium heat 5 min or until very hot. Add chops; cook 2 min on each side or until done. Remove to plate; cover to keep warm.

Drain pasta; return to saucepan. Add spinach and garlic; cook and stir 1 min or until spinach is wilted. Stir in remaining dressing, cheese and tomatoes; cook and stir 1 min or until heated through. Serve with chops.
