Ingredients

• 4 pieces boneless pork chops
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 6 ounces box of stuffing mix
• 1.5 cups chicken broth
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 1 can (10.5 ounces) cream of mushroom soup
• 0.5 cup milk
• 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
• 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.

Step 2

Season both sides of the pork chops with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.

Step 3

In a large skillet over medium heat, heat the olive oil. Sear the pork chops for 2-3 minutes per side until lightly browned. Remove from heat and set aside.

Step 4

Prepare the stuffing mix according to the package instructions, but replace water with chicken broth for extra flavor and stir in the butter. Let it cool for a few minutes.

Step 5

In a bowl, combine the cream of mushroom soup and milk until smooth, creating a creamy sauce.

Step 6

Spread the prepared stuffing evenly across the bottom of the greased baking dish.

Step 7

Arrange the seared pork chops on top of the stuffing layer.

Step 8

Pour the creamy sauce evenly over the pork chops and stuffing.

Step 9

Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the entire dish.

Step 10

Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake for 30 minutes in the preheated oven.

Step 11

Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until the pork reaches an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C) and the cheese is bubbly and golden.

Step 12

Remove from the oven, sprinkle with chopped parsley for garnish, and let rest for 5 minutes before serving.
