Ingredients for Apple Tarragon Stuffing For Pork

  • 4 tablespoons butter
  • Onion
  • 2 stalks celery, finely chopped
  • Granny Smith Apple
  • Fresh Parsley
  • Dry Bread
  • Roasted Almonds
  • Tarragon

How to Make Apple Tarragon Stuffing For Pork

  1. Melt 4 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add 1 medium onion, chopped, and cook until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add 2 medium apples, peeled, cored, and diced, 2 stalks celery, finely chopped, and 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley. Cook for another 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  2. Season the mixture generously with salt and pepper (about 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper).
  3. Stir in 6 cups of cubed day-old bread. Ensure the bread absorbs the butter; you may need to add a tablespoon or two of chicken broth if it seems too dry.
  4. Add 2 tablespoons of fresh tarragon, finely chopped, 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme, and 1/4 cup chicken broth. Mix thoroughly to combine.
  5. Gently stuff the mixture into your chosen pork cut. Follow the stuffing instructions specific to your chosen pork cut for cooking time and temperature.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Elevate your dish with simple flavor boosters! A final flourish of freshly chopped herbs can add incredible brightness, while a squeeze of lemon or lime juice right before serving can awaken all the flavors. Don't underestimate a sprinkle of quality finishing salt or a drizzle of good olive oil to make your creation shine.
