Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
- Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onions and saute until translucent, about 7 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the breadcrumbs, salt, pepper and garlic powder. Stir in the beaten egg and parsley.
- To cut pockets into the pork chops, insert the point of a small sharp knife horizontally into the fat-covered edge. Move the knife back and forth to create a deep pocket about 1 1/2 inches wide.
- Fill the pocket of each chop with the breadcrumb mixture. Secure the openings with toothpicks.
- Place the flour in a shallow bowl. Dredge the stuffed chops lightly in the flour, shaking off the excess. Wipe out the skillet used previously for the stuffing and place it over medium-high heat. Add the oil and, when hot, add the chops. Sear over medium heat until lightly browned, about 3 minutes per side.
- Place a rack in a roasting or baking pan and add water, being careful not to cover the rack with water. Place the chops on the rack and cover the roaster with the lid or aluminum foil. Bake the chops for 1 hour. Let rest, remove the toothpicks and serve.

ITALIAN SAUSAGE STUFFED PORK CHOP
Steps:
- Stuffing: In large a rondeau or heavy bottomed pot over medium-low heat, add butter and olive oil, then sweat onion, celery and garlic until translucent, about 3 minutes. Add sausage, and allow it to cook through, stirring often. Add spinach and toasted croutons. Mix well then add chicken stock, cream and parsley. Cook until thickens. Add cheese and season with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper. Allow stuffing to cool.
- Pork Chops: Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
- Make a 1-inch incision with a knife right next to the bone of the pork chop. Work the knife inside the pork chop to make a pocket for the stuffing. With a piping tool or simply with your hands, stuff the pork chop with the stuffing mixture until the pocket is packed well. Season the pork chop with salt and black pepper. Heat a large skillet and add oil. Sear both sides, about 1 minute. Place skillet in oven to roast for about 10 to 12 minutes, turning chops over half way through so as not to burn. Cook pork chop to medium, and the internal temperature registers 165 degrees F on an instant-read thermometer. Anything more than medium may dry out the chop.
BAKED STUFFED PORK CHOPS AND PAN GRAVY
I first cooked these in the early 90's when I belonged to a cooking school and they're great! Make sure your guests are hungry: this is a very hearty entree. Recipe #320348 makes a really good side dish. I cook them with apple juice - just haven't gotten around to trying them with wine. Note: The recipe is easily modified for thinner chops by reducing the browning and baking times.

Tips:
- To ensure even cooking, use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature of the pork chops. The safe internal temperature for pork is 145 degrees Fahrenheit (63 degrees Celsius).
- If you don't have a meat thermometer, you can check the doneness of the pork chops by cutting into one. The meat should be cooked through, with no pink in the center.
- To prevent the pork chops from drying out, don't overcook them. Overcooked pork chops will be tough and dry.
- If you are using a stuffing that contains bread crumbs, make sure to moisten the bread crumbs with milk or broth before stuffing the pork chops. This will help to prevent the stuffing from becoming dry and crumbly.
- You can use any type of stuffing that you like in your pork chops. Some popular options include bread stuffing, cornbread stuffing, and apple stuffing.
- If you are short on time, you can use a pre-made stuffing mix. Just be sure to follow the package directions carefully.
- Stuffed pork chops can be served with a variety of side dishes. Some popular options include roasted potatoes, mashed potatoes, green beans, and coleslaw.
