Unstuffed Pork Chops Recipes

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.

Steps:

• Position an oven rack in the middle of the oven and preheat the broiler.
• Put the croutons, butter, scallions, apricots, 1 cup of the chicken broth, 1/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a large bowl and toss to combine. Set aside to let the croutons soak up the broth.
• Pat the pork dry and season all over with 3/4 teaspoon of salt and few grinds of pepper. Heat the oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium high heat. Arrange the pork in the skillet in a single layer (it's okay if the chops are touching) and cook until nicely browned and almost cooked through, 4 minutes per side. Remove the skillet from the heat and transfer the pork chops to a baking sheet. Pack and pile 1/4 of the stuffing on top of each chop. Broil until the stuffing is golden brown, about 4 minutes.
• Meanwhile, return the skillet to medium-high heat, add the remaining 1 cup of chicken broth and bring to a simmer until slightly reduced, about 2 to 3 minutes. Whisk in the sour cream and Dijon until smooth, about 1 minute. Season the sauce with a few grinds of pepper. Spoon the sauce onto 4 plates. Transfer a pork chop onto each pool of sauce. Serve with the side salads.
