Stuffed pork chops with stuffing and cream of mushroom soup

I’ve said it before on here, pork is probably my family’s least favorite meat but with prices as they are, it’s also the least expensive lately.  If you cook pork too long it’s drier than ever, if you don’t season it well it’s as bland as ever, and if you have a family of naysayers you have to be creative.  

I will admit, it took a long time for me to be able to understand pork needs extra attention.  I am to blame for my family’s dislike of the other white meat.

Now, I can honestly say I have seen the light and am on the path to correcting their dislike with this stuffed pork chops with Stove-Top stuffing recipe.

Stuffed pork chops with stuffing and cream of mushroom soup

This is the recipe that has pork moving up on dinner ideas for my family.  Best part of this is that you can use leftover stuffing or the store-bought kind PLUS if you prefer to NOT use the “canned creamed soups” you can make the condensed creamed soup from scratch.

Stuffed pork chops with stuffing and cream of mushroom soup

  • 2 1/2 - 3 cups stuffing homemade or store bought
  • 2 tbsp Oil
  • 4 boneless pork chops trimmed of visible fat
  • 1 1/4 cups of DIY condensed cream of mushroom soup recipe is for cream of chicken but you can substitute mushrooms easily – or use 1 can of cream of mushroom soup
  • 2 garlic cloves minced
  • 2 tsp fresh thyme
  • Pepper
  • 1 tbsp chopped parsley

  • Prepare stuffing according to directions. Spray a baking dish with nonstick spray.

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

  • Season pork chops with the pepper. Heat oil in frying pan and when hot, add the pork chops and brown on both sides for about for 4 minutes per side.

  • Place pork chops into prepared baking dish.

  • If you are using the homemade condensed soup, you will only need half of the recipe (1 1/4 cups). If you are using the canned condensed soup, you will use the entire can. Mix soup with thyme and garlic then spoon soup evenly over the pork chops.

  • Top with stuffing and sprinkle the parsley over the stuffing. (You will have a bit of the stuffing leftover – I used about 3/4 - 1 cup pork chop).

  • Bake uncovered for about 30 - 45 minutes in oven or until pork chops are cooked through.

  • I like to turn on the broiler the last couple of minutes to toast the top of the stuffing.

Should stuffed pork chops be covered when baking?

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line baking sheet with aluminum foil. Place pork chops on prepared baking sheet and bake, uncovered, for 35 to 60 minutes, or until internal temperature of stuffing reaches 165 degrees.

How do you cook stuffed pork chops so they don't dry out?

If you would like to avoid overcooking the stuffing since this is the second time around, I recommend searing the pork chops over medium heat for just a few minutes on each side to give it texture and color. Then stuff them and bake them covered at 350 degrees for 15-20 minutes. What is this?

Why are my stuffed pork chops tough?

Because pork chops are such a lean cut, they are relatively quick-cooking and prone to overcooking. When they're cooked for even a few minutes too long, whether it's in the oven or on the stovetop or grill, they're quick to dry out, and — you guessed it — become tough, chewy, and less than appealing.

How long do you bake covered pork chops?

Baking pork chops in the oven at 350 F, uncovered, will take 20 to 30 minutes, and it will take 18 to 25 minutes if you bake pork chops covered with aluminum foil. Bake the pork chops until the internal temperature are 145 F internally.
