Glazed Pork Chops with Apple Stuffing

Glazed Pork Chops with Apple Stuffing

Stuffing:

3 cups diced bread

2 cups diced apples

½ onion, diced

½ cup celery diced

1 tablespoon minced garlic

1 stick of butter

10 thinly sliced pork chops OR 5-6 bone in, thick cut pork chops

Salt, pepper, maple syrup

Begin by searing each pork chop in a hot pan for 2-3 minutes on each side. Season with salt and pepper. (If you are using the bone in chops, slice a thick cut in the center of each to stuff it.

Dice all your ingredients for the stuffing. Melt the stick of butter in a large pan, add the onion, garlic and celery. Season with salt and pepper. Next, add the apple and finally the bread. Stir everything together as the bread absorbs the butter. Place a layer of pork chops in a 13x9 inch pan. Scoop the stuffing into each, and top with another chop. I secured the top and bottom chop with tooth picks. Drizzle with maple syrup and bake covered for 30 minutes at 350 degrees. Remove the foil and finish baking for an additional 20-30 minutes.
