3 Bartlett pears
6 boneless 1 inch thick pork chops (4 to 5 ounces each)
1/2 cup butter or margarine
3/4 cup orange juice
3 cups cornbread stuffing mix

Simmer for about 1 minute. 5. Place the stuffing mix in the baking dish, and stir in the orange juice-and-pear mixture. Arrange the browned pork chops over the stuffing, and tuck in the pear slices between the chops. 6. Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake for 40 minutes, or until the pork chops are thoroughly cooked and tender, or a thermometer inserted in the chops reads at least 160°F.
