Ingredients Needed

• 8 boneless lean Pork Chops about 3/4 to 1 inch thick
• 2–6 ounce packages Stove Top Chicken Stuffing
• 2 large eggs
• 3-4 Tablespoons vegetable oil for frying
• 1 can Cream of Chicken soup
• ½ cup sour cream, or cream cheese
• 1 cup milk
• Fresh chopped Parsley for garnish

How to Make Stuffed Pork Chops

You’ll want a superb boneless pork chop about 3/4 to 1-inch thick.

Using a really sharp knife, cut a “pocket” right down the center of your pork chop from one end to the other, being careful not to cut all the way through the pork chop.

TIP: To save money, purchase a whole Pork Loin Roast and cut it into 1-inch-thick boneless pork chops. You can save as much as half the purchase price of pre-cut pork chops.

How to Stuff Pork Chops

Now for the fun part of this recipe. The stuffing! Shhhhhh….it’s from a box! Shocking I know!

That’s right, you are going to use one 6-ounce box of Stove Top Stuffing, or your favorite brand of instant boxed stuffing mix. Follow the box directions for microwave instructions.

For the stove-top stuffing, add ¼ cup butter and 1½ cups hot water. Cook in the microwave for 5 minutes on high. Fluff with a fork. Let cool slightly.

With your pork chops ready to go… let’s stuff them with your amazing gourmet cooked stuffing. (Why make something simple, hard? That’s my motto! Don’t ya agree?)

Grab a heaping tablespoon of stuffing and place it in the center of the slit you cut in your pork chop. You may have to use your hands to really push it down inside the pork chop pocket. (Come on…dig in! Get ‘er done!)

Press your pork chop edges together and place them on a cookie sheet until you have all your pork chops stuffed.

Remember when stuffing… this poor little pork chop did nothing to you… so be nice and gentle when working your magic!

*Please note… You will have left over stuffing. No worries, you can just tuck it in and around your pork chops when you bake them later.

Preparing Pork Chop Coating

To prepare the coating mixture for the pork chops, you need the other box of stuffing mix.

Place the stuffing mix into a large heavy-duty zip-lock bag. With a rolling-pin, crush the breadcrumbs until they are fine crumbles. (You can also crush them in your food processor if you have one. Whichever is easiest for you. I like to use the bag because fewer dishes!)

Place the crumbs into a shallow dish, like a pie plate or a dredging dish.

Preparing Stuffed Pork Chops for cooking

Heat a large skillet with 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil over medium-high heat.

In another shallow dish, beat two eggs to create an egg wash. Carefully grab a stuffed pork chop and dip it into the egg wash, being sure to coat both sides.

Remove the pork chop from the egg wash.

Gently lay the pork chop into the crushed stuffing mix. Using a fork or spoon, cover the top of the pork chop with the stuffing crumbs, so that both sides are coated. Press down with your hand to be sure the crumb mixture adheres to the pork chop.

Cooking Stuffed Pork Chops

Place the stuffed breaded pork chop into your preheated skillet. Cook until golden brown. About 3–4 minutes per side.

Using large tongs, or a spatula, carefully turn the pork chops to brown the other side. Be careful not to knock off all that yummy golden brown coating.

Repeat with the remaining pork chops and vegetable oil.

*Do not worry about the pork chops being cooked through. You are going to place them in the oven to finish cooking.

Place your crispy pork chops onto a large baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Preheat your oven to 300°(F) degrees. Place browned pork chops into the oven for 20–25 minutes or until juices run clear.

TIP: Be very careful not to overcook your pork chops! The key to a juicy pork chop is not over cooking them. They take less time to cook than you think.

How To Make Simple Gravy

While your pork chops are in the oven, you can make a simple gravy to pour over the top of your stuffed pork chops.

To make the gravy, mix one can of cream of chicken soup, 1/2 cup sour cream or cream cheese, and one cup of milk in a medium sauce pan.

Simmer over low heat until heated through. Stirring occasionally. If you would like a thinner gravy, add more milk till you have the desired consistency.

Serving Stuffed Pork Chops

Place your fully baked pork chops onto a serving platter. You can tuck the extra stuffing in and around the finished pork chops.

Pour creamy gravy over each pork chop. Garnish with fresh chopped parsley.

I can’t stress this enough…the gravy for this dish…makes the dish! Oh, it’s good without it, but it’s a thousand times better with the gravy.

The combination of tender pork chops and flavorful stuffing makes for a meal that’s both comforting and satisfying. Serve them with your favorite side dishes or a crisp salad for a complete dinner that’s sure to please.
