This is a great cheese ball! I really thought it would be too wet when I was mixing it but it hardened up fine. I just put the mixture in a couple layers of saran wrap and shaped it that way. I only put in 3 T of oil and you could probably do with 1 or 2 - not sure it made much difference. I also only put in half the spice amounts and it was heavily spiced (and I like a LOT of herbs and spices)! It looked like it would be completely overwhelming with the whole amount. Also, I totally forgot the garlic - no biggie. Double the feta would have made it even better. Also, I made it a brick shape instead of a ball. After it hardened overnight, I rolled it in black sesame seeds and served it with the Townhouse Flipsides Pretzel Crackers (the best cracker discovery ever!). YUM!

I'm giving this four stars because it really needs more than a half hour of simmering to make it tender. The flavor was great, but I had to add water and more wine to make it more saucy. All the sauce had cooked away by the end of the half hour! Next time I think I will make this in the crockpot. I bet it would be delicious that way!

These were pretty good. I made as directed but without the butter. Instead, I sprayed I Can't Believe It's Not Butter on each side before baking. I generously salted and peppered the chops before dipping. One of the issues was that the cubes of stuffing were large (stovetop brand) and didn't really create a "breading" - more like a topping. Next time I will crush them up more or use breadcrumbs. Also, they had to cook for 15 minutes per side for me (1 in thick) and after 10 minutes the breading on top started to burn and I had to cover with foil. Nevertheless, I think this is a good recipe and worth making again.
