PORK CHOPS STUFFED WITH FETA, BASIL & ALMONDS



Pork Chops Stuffed With Feta, Basil & Almonds image

This one is made up on the fly! I thawed some pork chops, and started looking in the fridge for things to stuff it with. I had some fresh basil I needed to use, came across the feta, and remembered I had some almonds. Added a few other ingredients, stuffed 'em, and baked 'em. They have sort of a Mediterranean flair. Soooo good!

Provided by Terrie Hoelscher

Categories     Steaks and Chops

Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 lean, boneless pork chops, about 1/2
STUFFING FOR PORK CHOPS
1/4 c feta cheese, crumbled
1/4 tsp lemon zest
1/4 c chopped almonds
1/4 tsp fresh, chopped basil
1/4 tsp chopped dried craisins
1/2 tsp dijon mustard
1 pinch thyme
GLAZE TOPPING
2 tsp apricot preserves
2 Tbsp unseasoned bread crumbs, fresh
spray butter or spray canola oil

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 375°.
  • 2. Pat pork chops dry. Trim off excess fat around edges. Holding palm of one hand firmly flat on top of a chop, use a sharp knife with a sweeping motion to split the chop horizontally and form a pocket. Take care not to cut thru the back or sides or bottom of the chop. Repeat w/ second chop. Set aside on a platter.
  • 3. In a med. bowl, mix together the feta, lemon zest, chopped almonds, basil, craisins, dijon, & thyme. Stir to blend well.
  • 4. Stuff the mixture into each chop, pressing it deep into the pocket. Place chops back onto platter.
  • 5. Spread apricot preserves on top of each chop. Then sprinkle with the unseasoned bread crumbs, pressing the bread crumbs into the preserves. Spritz the top of the crumbs w/ spray butter or spray canola oil.
  • 6. Spray a baking dish with PAM or canola oil. Using a large spatula, transfer the chops from the platter to the prepared baking dish. (If you put the chops into the baking dish before sprinkling the bread crumbs on top, you'll have a mess of bread crumbs in the bottom of the dish that might burn, once you bake the chops).
  • 7. Bake chops for 35 - 40 minutes, testing for doneness when thermometer inserted into meat reaches 170° (don't put thermometer into the stuffing; you want to read the MEAT temperature).
  • 8. Remove chops from oven when done, and let them sit for just a few minutes, so the stuffing will set up & cool a bit.

GRILLED PORK CHOPS WITH BASIL-GARLIC RUB



GRILLED PORK CHOPS WITH BASIL-GARLIC RUB image

Categories     Pork     Broil     Quick & Easy     Dinner

Yield 4 People

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 pork bone-in rib chops, 3/4-inch thick
2 cloves garlic, peeled
1 cup fresh basil, packed
2 tablespoons lemon juice , fresh
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 teaspoon coarse salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • With machine running, drop garlic through feed tube of food processor to mince. Stop, add fresh basil, and process until chopped. Add lemon juice, oil, salt, and pepper and process to make thin wet rub. Spread both sides of pork chops with basil mixture. Let stand 15 to 30 minutes. Prepare a medium-hot fire in grill. Brush the grate clean and oil the grate. Grill chops, over direct heat, turning once, to medium rare doneness, 5 to 6 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 145 degrees Fahrenheit, followed by a 3-minute rest time.

Tips:

  • Choose the right pork chops: Look for bone-in pork chops that are at least 1-inch thick. This will ensure that they stay juicy and flavorful during cooking.
  • Marinate the pork chops: Marinating the pork chops in a mixture of olive oil, herbs, and spices will help to tenderize them and add flavor.
  • Sear the pork chops: Searing the pork chops in a hot skillet will create a delicious crust and help to lock in the juices.
  • Cook the pork chops: The best way to cook pork chops is to pan-fry them over medium heat. This will ensure that they are cooked through but still juicy.
  • Let the pork chops rest: After cooking, let the pork chops rest for a few minutes before serving. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, making them even more tender and flavorful.
