A delightful twist on a classic pork chop stuffing recipe, enhanced with rich flavors and a simplified cooking process.
Preheat your oven to 350°F.
Preheating ensures even cooking and optimal results.
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and sear the pork chops on both sides until golden brown.
Searing locks in the juices and enhances the flavor.
In a mixing bowl, combine the bread cubes, celery, onion, poultry seasoning, melted butter, and chicken broth. Mix until evenly moistened.
Ensure the bread cubes are evenly coated for a consistent stuffing texture.
Place the seared pork chops in a baking dish and mound the stuffing on top of each chop.
Press the stuffing gently to help it adhere to the pork chops.
In a small bowl, whisk together the cream of mushroom soup and water until smooth. Pour this mixture over the pork chops and stuffing.
Whisking the soup ensures a smooth and even sauce.
Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes.
Covering the dish helps retain moisture during baking.
Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the pork reaches an internal temperature of 160°F.
Use a meat thermometer to ensure the pork is cooked to a safe temperature.
Serve the pork chops with a generous portion of stuffing and sauce. Enjoy your meal!
Garnish with fresh parsley for a pop of color and added flavor.
