Categories     main-dish

Time 1h15m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 boneless pork chops (1 pound total)
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 garlic clove, minced
1/2 onion, diced
1/2 cup chopped green apple, such as Granny Smith
1/2 cup diced carrots
1/2 cup diced celery
1 cup crumbled cornbread
1/4 cup chicken broth or stock
4 sage leaves, coarsely chopped
Salt and ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Slice into the pork chops horizontally, but not all the way through. (You're essentially butterflying the pork chops and giving them a little pouch.) Set aside.
  • In a large skillet over medium-high heat, heat up 1 tablespoon olive oil. Add the garlic and onion and saute until fragrant and softened, about 3 minutes. Add the apple, carrots and celery and cook until softened, 7 to 10 minutes.
  • Add in the cornbread, chicken broth and sage leaves, and stir to incorporate. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Remove the skillet from the heat and let the filling cool for 10 minutes.
  • Carefully spoon the filling into the pork chops. If they become full and you can no longer stuff anymore, that's ok-save the filling to eat on the side. Use toothpicks to secure the chops shut. If the toothpicks poke out, use scissors to trim them flush to the pork chops.
  • In the same skillet you used earlier, heat up the remaining tablespoon olive oil. Sear the pork chops, 3 to 5 minutes per side. Turn the heat down to medium and continue cooking, flipping occasionally, until the pork chops have cooked through completely, 15 to 20 minutes. Serve warm with the additional cornbread stuffing!

PORK CHOPS WITH SAVORY APPLE STUFFING



Pork Chops With Savory Apple Stuffing image

This is an easy and delicious way to serve pork chops--another of my favorite warm and hearty comfort foods. The pork chops turn out juicy and are complimented by the stuffing flavored with apples, garlic, onions and savory seasonings. In my opinion, homemade stuffing rivals any store-bought mix. The stuffing under the pork chops is moistened and flavored by the meat juices while the stuffing on the surface is crispy and buttery--my favorite part! If you desire all of your stuffing to be moist, cover the baking pan with aluminum foil while in the oven. Enjoy!

APPLE SAGE STUFFED PORK CHOPS



Apple Sage Stuffed Pork Chops image

I found this recipe in an old recipe file a friend had. She'd never tried it but gave it to me. It's a little time consuming but well worth every minute. Although I've never frozen them, I bet they'd keep well for a quick dinner as this is easily doubled or tripled. This dish is a big hit with my family and friends. I usually make extra dressing for a side dish.

Categories     Pork

Time 1h30m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

4 thick boneless pork chops
1/4 cup chopped onion
1/4 cup chopped celery
2 tablespoons butter
1 cup whole wheat bread, cubed
1 apple, peeled,cored & diced
1 teaspoon dried sage
1/2 teaspoon coriander
1/4 cup flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1 teaspoon oil
1 teaspoon butter
1/2-3/4 cup chicken broth

Steps:

  • Cut a pocket into each pork chop and trim fat.
  • Saute onion & celery until soft in 2 T. butter.
  • Add bread cubes, apple, sage & coriander.
  • Mix well & moisten with 2 T. broth.
  • Stuff the chops with the dressing.
  • Hold together with toothpicks if you wish.
  • Mix together flour, salt& pepper.
  • Dredge the chops in mixture.
  • Heat oil & 1 t. butter.
  • Sear the chops & put into a sprayed baking dish.
  • Pour remaining broth over chops, cover & bake at 350 degrees for 1 hour.

Tips:

  • Choose the right pork chops: Look for boneless, center-cut pork chops that are about 1 inch thick. This will ensure that they cook evenly and remain juicy.
  • Don't overstuff the pork chops: You want the filling to be flavorful, but not so much that it bursts out of the chops when they're cooked.
  • Use a sharp knife to cut the pork chops: This will help to prevent the chops from tearing when you're stuffing them.
  • Cook the pork chops over medium heat: This will help to prevent them from drying out.
  • Use a meat thermometer to ensure that the pork chops are cooked to the desired doneness: Pork chops are safe to eat when they reach an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Let the pork chops rest before serving: This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the chops, making them more tender and flavorful.

Conclusion:

Pork chops stuffed with apples and sage are a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a special occasion meal. The combination of sweet apples, savory sage, and tender pork is sure to please everyone at the table. So next time you're looking for a new pork chop recipe, give this one a try.
