Ingredients
- 4 pieces bone-in pork chops
- 2 medium, peeled and thinly sliced apples
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 0.5 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 2 cups store-bought stuffing mix
- 1.5 cups chicken broth
- 1 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoons salt
- 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Step 2
Season the pork chops on both sides with salt and black pepper.
Step 3
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the pork chops for about 2-3 minutes per side, until golden brown. Remove the pork chops from the skillet and set them aside.
Step 4
In the same skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the sliced apples, ground cinnamon, and brown sugar. Cook for 4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the apples soften slightly.
Step 5
Prepare the stuffing mix according to the package instructions, substituting chicken broth for water for added flavor.
Step 6
Spread the prepared stuffing evenly in the bottom of a lightly greased 9x13-inch baking dish.
Step 7
Place the seared pork chops on top of the stuffing in the baking dish.
Step 8
Spoon the cooked apple mixture evenly over the pork chops.
Step 9
Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes.
Step 10
Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the pork chops are cooked through and the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C).
Step 11
Remove the dish from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving.
