Pork Chops w/ Stuffing Gravy

Morning sickness is finally subsiding. I'm excited to put my apron back on and try out new creations in the kitchen! Made pork chops tonight. Skillet browned, gravy stuffing on top, and baked to perfection. Definitely a recipe that's going in the recipe box! And of course, I can't keep delicious recipes like this one to myself:
...There are actually pork chops under there.
Pork Chops with Stuffing Gravy
  • 2 T veggie oil
  • olive oil
    4-6 pork chops (thicker cut)
  • 5 c. bread cubes from Italian bread (day old is OK) 
  • grated parm cheese
  • 1 stick of butter, melted
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth
  • 2 T. chopped celery
  • dash of your favorite seasoning (ex: poultry seasoning)
  • 2 cans cream of ...whatever soup (I used 1 cream of mushroom, and 1 cream of chicken)
  • 2/3 c. water
  1.  In a skillet, heat the veggie oil & brown the chops on both sides. Place in a baking dish.
  2. Prep the bread cubes: In a bowl, toss bread cubes around with some olive oil & grated parm cheese. Coat generously. place in a pan (I used stoneware for this) & pop it in the oven under the broiler for about 5 minutes, till toasty. If you want to skip this step, I'm sure day-old bread cubes would work fine!
  3. Preheat oven to 350 degrees
  4. Place toasty bread crumbs back in the bowl. Toss with melted butter, chicken broth, celery, and poultry seasoning. Cover the pork chops with bread crumb mixture.
  5. combine the cream of mushroom and cream of chicken soups together with the water. Pour mixture over stuffing and pork chops.
  6. Cover and bake for 30 minutes.
  7. Uncover and continue baking for 10 minutes, or till juices run clear. Meat thermometer should read at least 160.
This is really a no-fail recipe, IMO! Add and take away your own stuff to it!
