How to Make Apple Sage Stuffed Pork Chops

  1. Cut a pocket into each pork chop (about 4-6) and trim excess fat.
  2. In a large skillet, sauté 1/2 cup chopped onion and 1/2 cup chopped celery until softened in 2 tablespoons butter.
  3. Add 1 cup of cubed bread, 1 medium apple (peeled, cored, and diced), 1 tablespoon fresh sage (chopped), and 1 teaspoon ground coriander.
  4. Mix well and moisten with 2 tablespoons chicken broth.
  5. Stuff the chops with the apple sage dressing.
  6. Secure with toothpicks if desired.
  7. In a shallow dish, whisk together 1/4 cup all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper.
  8. Dredge the stuffed pork chops in the flour mixture.
  9. Heat 2 tablespoons oil and 1 tablespoon butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  10. Sear the pork chops for 2-3 minutes per side until browned.
  11. Transfer the seared pork chops to a greased baking dish.
  12. Pour the remaining chicken broth from the skillet over the chops.
  13. Cover the baking dish and bake at 350°F (175°C) for 1 hour, or until the pork chops are cooked through and the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C).
