Apple Pork Chops and Stuffing
Description
Tender pork loin chops are sandwiched between sweet apple pie filling and savory stuffing, creating a quick and easy dinner for hectic weeknights.
Ingredients
•
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
•
6 (1-inch thick) boneless pork loin chops
•
1 1/2 cups water
•
1/4 cup margarine
•
1 (6 ounce) package pork stuffing mix
•
1 (21 ounce) can apple pie filling with cinnamon
Directions
1
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
2
Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat; brown pork chops in hot oil, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Place on a plate and set aside.
3
Bring water and margarine to a boil in a saucepan; add stuffing mix and cover. Remove the saucepan from heat and let stand until water is absorbed, about 5 minutes. Remove the lid and fluff stuffing with a fork.
4
Spread apple pie filling into the prepared baking dish. Layer pork chops over pie filling. Spoon stuffing over pork chops. Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil.
5
Bake in the preheated oven for 35 minutes. Remove foil and cook until pork is no longer pink in the center, about 10 more minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 160 degrees F (70 degrees C).
