Stuffed Iowa Chops (Oamc) image

Taken from the Taste of Home website, this has become a favorite even among those that previously claimed to dislike pork chops. Pretty enough to serve to company, this recipe can be made ahead of time and even frozen. I recommend freezing the sauce separately and adding to chops after they've been in the oven a bit. I also double the sauce and the stuffing mix. People LOVE this. I've frozen this several times with great success. I hope you love this as much as we do.

Time 1h30m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 16

4 pork loin chops with bone, - 1-1/2-inch thick each chop
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 cup diced apple
1 tablespoon minced parsley
1 tablespoon milk
1/4 teaspoon rubbed sage
1 cup corn (I use a little more than a cup because we like the added texture)
1 cup dried breadcrumbs
1 tablespoon onion, chopped
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/4-1/2 cup Dijon mustard
1/2 cup honey
1 teaspoon minced fresh rosemary
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper

Steps:

  • Cut a large pocket in the side of each chop.
  • Brown chops in oil over medium heat.
  • In a bowl, combine the corn, apple, bread crumbs, parsley, onion, milk, salt, sage, and pepper.
  • Stuff some of the mixture into the opening of each Pork Chop.
  • Line the bottom of a greased 13 x 9" baking dish with the leftover stuffing, and lay the Chops on top.
  • Combine the sauce ingredients; pour half over the chops and drizzle over the stuffing lining the pan.
  • Bake uncovered at 350 degrees for an hour or so until the thermometer reads 160 degrees. Continually baste with the remaining sauce. I do reserve some to drizzle over the chops as they are plated and served.
