A classic recipe for bone-in pork chops stuffed with a savory bread crumb mixture and baked to perfection.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 bone-in pork chops, 1-inch thick, with a pocket cut
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1/2 cup finely chopped onion
  • 1 stalk celery, finely chopped
  • 1/2 cup sliced mushrooms (optional)
  • 1 cup bread crumbs
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
  • 1/2 tsp dried sage
  • Salt and black pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add onion and celery, cook until softened, about 5 minutes. If using, add mushrooms and cook until tender.
  3. Remove from heat and transfer vegetables to a medium bowl. Add bread crumbs, chicken broth, parsley, and sage. Mix well. Season with salt and pepper.
  4. Carefully stuff each pork chop pocket with the bread crumb mixture. You may need to secure the opening with a toothpick.
  5. Season the outside of the stuffed pork chops with salt and pepper.
  6. Heat a clean skillet (oven-safe if possible) over medium-high heat. Sear the stuffed pork chops for 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown.
  7. Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven (or place chops in a baking dish). Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the pork reaches 145°F (63°C).
  8. Remove from oven, let rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Notes

  • Ensure the pork chops have a pocket cut deep enough to hold the stuffing.
  • If you don’t have an oven-safe skillet, transfer the seared pork chops to a baking dish before placing them in the oven.
  • Using a meat thermometer is the most accurate way to ensure the pork is cooked to the correct internal temperature.
