Ingredients

• 4 pieces Pork chops
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 teaspoon Paprika
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 1 medium, diced Onion
• 2 stalks, diced Celery
• 2 cloves, minced Garlic
• 1.5 cups Chicken broth
• 0.5 teaspoon Sage
• 0.5 teaspoon Thyme
• 3 cups Stuffing mix
• 1 can (10.5 oz) Cream of mushroom soup
• 0.5 cup Water
• 0.5 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
• 2 tablespoons, chopped Fresh parsley (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.

Step 2

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

Step 3

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the pork chops for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown. Remove them from the skillet and set aside.

Step 4

In the same skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the diced onion and celery, and sauté for 4-5 minutes until softened. Stir in the garlic and cook for an additional 1 minute.

Step 5

Pour in the chicken broth, sage, and thyme. Bring the mixture to a simmer, then remove from heat.

Step 6

In a large bowl, combine the stuffing mix and the broth-vegetable mixture. Stir until the stuffing mix absorbs the liquid.

Step 7

Spread the stuffing evenly into the prepared baking dish.

Step 8

In a small bowl, mix the cream of mushroom soup with water until smooth. Pour this mixture over the stuffing layer.

Step 9

Place the seared pork chops on top of the stuffing and soup mixture. Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese evenly over the entire dish.

Step 10

Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes.

Step 11

Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the pork chops are cooked through (internal temperature of 145°F) and the top is slightly golden.

Step 12

Let the casserole rest for 5 minutes before serving. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired.
