Pork Chops With Stuffing and Green Beans image

As with most of my dishes, this was born of lack of inspiration and sheer laziness. I had a yen for stuffed pork chops but not enough yang to actually make them. I found lots of recipes here for pork chops with stuffing but none with the green bean/onion layers which add moisture & flavor to the dish. Of course, the pan drippings left from browning would be a wonderful gravy starter if you're so inclined. This was an invention which pleased our palates immensely!

Time 1h10m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 boneless pork chops, butterflied, 1 inch thick
1/2 teaspoon ground thyme
1/4 teaspoon dried rosemary
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 (15 ounce) can green beans or 2 cups frozen green beans
1 medium onion, sliced & separated into rings
1 (6 ounce) package seasoned stuffing mix (made according to package directions)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350ยบ F.
  • Coat an 11"X7" baking dish with cooking spray.
  • Season both sides of pork chops with thyme, crushed rosemary & black pepper. **(note - I chose not to add salt as prepackaged stuffing mixes usually have a very high sodium content).
  • Heat a large skillet over medium-high flame & add the oil. When hot, add the chops. Brown 3-4 minutes per side.
  • Prepare stuffing mix per package directions. Set aside.
  • Drain green beans & spread in bottom baking dish. Distribute onion rings evenly atop the green beans.
  • When pork chops are browned, arrange them on top of onions.
  • Add stuffing mixture to dish, filling in spaces around and between chops.
  • Cover loosely with foil & bake 35 minutes. Remove foil & bake another 10 minutes or until meat is no longer pink in the center.
  • ** Note - I used thick, boneless chops. If you use thinner ones, adjust bake time accordingly unless you enjoy dry pork!
