Best Cheesy Egg Topped Smoked Pork Chops Recipes

SMOTHERED PORK CHOPS AND GRITS

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Season the pork with 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper; cook until browned, 3 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate.
• Add the red onions to the skillet and season with salt. Cook, stirring, until lightly browned, 3 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium, stir in the flour and cook, stirring, 2 minutes. Add the chicken broth and bay leaf. Cook, stirring, until thickened, about 3 minutes. Add the vinegar, then return the pork to the skillet to warm through.
• Meanwhile, bring 2 1/4 cups water to a boil in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the grits and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Reduce the heat to low and cook, stirring, until thickened, 5 minutes. Stir in the cheese.
• Remove the pork from the skillet; discard the bay leaf and stir the parsley into the pan sauce. Serve the pork with the grits. Top with the pan sauce and more parsley.

JOHN'S BAKED PORK CHOPS STUFFED WITH SMOKED GOUDA AND BACON

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Combine Gouda cheese, bacon, parsley, and 1/8 teaspoon black pepper together in a bowl.
• Cut each pork chop from one side through the middle horizontally to within 1/2 inch of the other side. Open the two sides and spread them out like an open book. Stuff cheese mixture into each pocket and close; secure with a wooden toothpick. Coat each stuffed pork chop with olive oil.
• Whisk egg in a bowl. Mix bread crumbs, salt, and black pepper to taste together in a separate bowl. Carefully dip each stuffed pork chop in the egg; press chop into bread crumb mixture until evenly coated. Place breaded pork chops in a 9x13-inch casserole dish.
• Bake in preheated oven until no longer pink in the center, about 45 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C). Garnish pork chops with cored apple, green onion, and red grapes.

CHEESY CHOPS & CHIPS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 230C/fan 210C/gas 8. In a large bowl toss the potatoes, onion, liquid and oil together. Season if you like. Tip the onion and potatoes into a large sauté pan and bake for 20-30 mins until the potatoes start to brown. Lay the chops on the potatoes and cook for 10 mins more.
• While the potatoes are cooking, mix the cheese, mustard and milk together. When the chops have had 10 mins, spread the cheese mixture over them and switch the oven over to grill. Place the pan under the grill and cook for about 5 mins until the cheese is bubbling and the potatoes are golden and crispy. Serve straight from the pan.
