How to Make Pork Chops With Rhubarb Stuffing

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Season 4 pork chops (about 1 inch thick) with 1 teaspoon rosemary, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
  3. Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Brown pork chops for 2-3 minutes per side.
  4. Remove pork chops from skillet, reserving 1 tablespoon of drippings. Add 1-2 tablespoons of water to the skillet if needed to reach 1 tablespoon of drippings.
  5. Prepare the stuffing: In a medium bowl, combine 2 cups chopped rhubarb, 1/2 cup chopped onion, 1/4 cup chopped walnuts, 1/4 cup bread crumbs, 1 tablespoon brown sugar, 1 teaspoon grated orange zest, and 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon.
  6. Grease a casserole dish large enough to hold the pork chops in a single layer.
  7. Spoon half of the rhubarb stuffing into the bottom of the casserole dish.
  8. Arrange the browned pork chops on top of the stuffing.
  9. Top with the remaining stuffing.
  10. Drizzle the reserved pork drippings evenly over the stuffing.
  11. Cover the casserole dish with foil.
  12. Bake for 45 minutes.
  13. Remove foil and bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until the pork chops are cooked through and the stuffing is heated and slightly browned.
