Ingredients for Baked Pork Chops And Stuffing

  • 4 bone-in pork chops (about 1 inch thick)
  • Soft Bread Cubes
  • Onions
  • 1/4 cup melted butter
  • 1/4 cup water (for stuffing) + 1/3 cup water (for soup)
  • Poultry Seasoning
  • 1 (10.75 ounce) can cream of mushroom soup (or cream of celery/golden mushroom soup)

How to Make Baked Pork Chops And Stuffing

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Lightly grease a shallow 2-2.5 quart casserole dish with a small piece of pork fat from one of the chops.
  3. Season pork chops generously with salt and pepper. Brown chops on both sides over medium heat in a separate skillet until lightly browned (about 2-3 minutes per side).
  4. Place the browned pork chops in a single layer in the prepared casserole dish.
  5. In a large bowl, combine 4 cups of cubed bread, 1/2 cup chopped onion, 1/4 cup melted butter, 2 teaspoons poultry seasoning, and 1/4 cup water. Mix well to evenly moisten the bread.
  6. Spread the bread stuffing evenly over the pork chops in the casserole dish.
  7. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 (10.75 ounce) can cream of mushroom soup (or cream of celery/golden mushroom) and 1/3 cup water until smooth.
  8. Pour the soup mixture evenly over the pork chops and stuffing.
  9. Bake, uncovered, for 60-75 minutes, or until the pork chops are cooked through and the stuffing is golden brown and heated through. Internal temperature of the pork chops should reach 145°F (63°C).
  10. Let rest for 5-10 minutes before serving.

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.
