Stove-Top Stuffed Pork Chops
Stove-Top Stuffed Pork Chops out of the oven "cut with a fork" tender and so flavorful from the thyme and the stuffing. Add a vegetable or salad and you've got dinner ready.
Ingredients
- 2 1/2 - 3 cups stuffing homemade or store bought
- 2 tbsp Oil
- 4 boneless pork chops trimmed of visible fat
- 1 1/4 cups of DIY condensed cream of mushroom soup recipe is for cream of chicken but you can substitute mushrooms easily – or use 1 can of cream of mushroom soup
- 2 garlic cloves minced
- 2 tsp fresh thyme
- Pepper
- 1 tbsp chopped parsley
Instructions
- Prepare stuffing according to directions. Spray a baking dish with nonstick spray.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Season pork chops with the pepper. Heat oil in frying pan and when hot, add the pork chops and brown on both sides for about for 4 minutes per side.
- Place pork chops into prepared baking dish.
- If you are using the homemade condensed soup, you will only need half of the recipe (1 1/4 cups). If you are using the canned condensed soup, you will use the entire can. Mix soup with thyme and garlic then spoon soup evenly over the pork chops.
- Top with stuffing and sprinkle the parsley over the stuffing. (You will have a bit of the stuffing leftover – I used about 3/4 - 1 cup pork chop).
- Bake uncovered for about 30 - 45 minutes in oven or until pork chops are cooked through.
- I like to turn on the broiler the last couple of minutes to toast the top of the stuffing.
