To compliment this dish, serve it with light side dishes such as Recipe #251321, and Recipe #260696, and topped with some decorative fresh parsley. Your kitchen will be filled with aromatics all day! A great way to ensure tender and moist chops is to soak them in a brine of 1 cup milk to 1/2 Tbs salt for at least 1 hour before using in a recipe.

Tips:

  • Choose the right pork chops: Look for boneless, center-cut pork chops that are about 1 inch thick. Thinner chops will cook too quickly and dry out, while thicker chops may not cook evenly.
  • Pound the pork chops: Pounding the pork chops helps to tenderize them and makes them more evenly cooked. Use a meat mallet or the bottom of a heavy skillet to pound the chops to about 1/4 inch thick.
  • Season the pork chops: Season the pork chops with salt, pepper, and your favorite herbs and spices. You can also add a marinade to the pork chops for extra flavor. Marinate the pork chops for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight.
  • Stuff the pork chops: Stuff the pork chops with your favorite filling. The recipe in the article uses an apple-cranberry stuffing, but you can use any filling you like. Be sure to not overstuff the pork chops, or they will be difficult to cook evenly.
  • Cook the pork chops: Cook the pork chops in a preheated oven at 375 degrees Fahrenheit for 25-30 minutes, or until the pork chops are cooked through. You can also cook the pork chops in a skillet over medium heat for 4-5 minutes per side, or until the pork chops are cooked through.

Conclusion:

Apple-stuffed boneless pork chops are a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for any occasion. By following the tips in this article, you can make sure that your pork chops are juicy, tender, and flavorful. So next time you're looking for a tasty and satisfying meal, give apple-stuffed boneless pork chops a try!
