• In a skillet, heat the oil and brown the pork chops. Place the pork chops in a baking dish.
• In a bowl, toss the bread cubes, melted butter, chicken broth, celery, onion, and poultry seasoning together. Put heaping mounds of the bread crumb mixture onto the pork chops.
• Combine the cream of mushroom soup with the water, and pour this mixture over the stuffing and pork chops.

GOURMET STUFFED PORK CHOPS

Steps:

• Lay pork chops flat onto your work surface. Use the tip of a sharp boning or paring knife to cut a pocket in each pork chop making a 2 inch slit in the side.
• Mix mushrooms, Swiss cheese, parsley, garlic powder, black pepper, and salt in a bowl; stuff pork chops with mushroom mixture. Secure the open side with a toothpick.
• Whisk eggs in a bowl; pour bread crumbs into a separate bowl. Dip the stuffed pork chops into the beaten egg; press pork chops into bread crumbs until completely coated.
• Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat; place pork chops, pocket side-down, into the hot oil. Cook until outside of pork chops is browned, 2 to 3 minutes per side.
• Pour in enough wine to come halfway up pork chops. Reduce heat to low, cover skillet, and simmer until pork chops are tender, about 2 hours. Check wine level occasionally and add more as needed. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).

MUSHROOM-STUFFED PORK CHOPS WITH VERMOUTH SAUCE

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 400 degrees F and arrange a rack in upper third.
• Pat the pork chops dry with paper towels and put on a cutting board. Using a small paring knife, cut a 2-inch opening horizontal to the cutting board, halfway up the meat in each chop. Move the knife back and forth in a fan motion to open the interior of the pocket without significantly widening the opening. (You don't want to pierce through the meat but simply create a pocket for the stuffing.) Brush the exterior of the chops with oil, season well with salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste, and set aside until the stuffing is ready.
• Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a large ovenproof frying pan over medium-high heat. When the oil shimmers, add the shallots and cook until softened. Add the mushrooms, season well with salt and freshly ground black pepper, and cook, stirring rarely, until browned, about 10 minutes. Stir in the parsley and remove to a plate to cool slightly. Wipe out the frying pan and return it to the stove over medium-high heat. Taste the stuffing and adjust the seasoning, as necessary. Stuff half of the mushroom mixture into the pocket of each chop. If the filling is falling out, secure the chops closed with toothpicks.
• Add the remaining 1 tablespoon oil to the pan over medium heat. When the oil shimmers, arrange the stuffed chops in the pan and cook until browned, about 4 minutes. Flip the chops to the other side and transfer the pan to the oven. Bake until the pork is cooked and an instant-read thermometer, inserted into the center of the chops, registers 160 degrees F, about 12 to 15 minutes.
• Remove the pan from the oven and set the pork aside on serving plates to rest. Return the pan to the stove over medium heat and add the vermouth. Cook, scraping the bits from the bottom of the pan with a spatula, until the alcohol smell is cooked off and is slightly reduced, about 1 minute. Remove the pan from the heat, add the butter, and let it melt. Taste the sauce and adjust the seasoning. Drizzle the sauce over the chops and serve with a gratin, mashed potatoes, or polenta, if desired.

STUFFED PORK CHOPS RECIPE WITH MUSHROOM-SAUSAGE STUFFING

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F.
• In a large bowl, toss the bread chunks with 1/2 cup of the olive oil and salt and pepper to taste. Spread on a baking sheet and toast in the oven, shaking the pan several times to insure even browning, for 5 to 6 minutes, until lightly browned. Let the bread cool for about 10 minutes, then transfer to a large bowl.
• In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of the oil over medium heat. When hot, sauté the onion and garlic for about 3 minutes, or until the onion softens. Take care so the garlic does not burn. If it appears to be scorching, lower the heat.
• Add the sausage, sage, and marjoram and cook, stirring with a wooden spoon to break up the sausage meat, for about 10 minutes, or until the sausage is cooked through. Transfer to the bowl with the bread and set aside.
• Add 2 tablespoons of the oil to the skillet and heat over medium heat. When hot, add the mushrooms and cook, uncovered, for about 5 minutes, or until the mushrooms give off their juices, the juices evaporate, and the mushrooms begin to brown.
• Transfer the mushrooms to the mixing bowl. Add the Parmesan and parsley and mix well. Slowly add the stock, stirring to mix, and season to taste with salt and pepper. Cover the bowl and refrigerate until chilled. The stuffing can be made and refrigerated up to 2 days in advance.
• Meanwhile, prepare a clean, well-oiled charcoal or gas grill so that the charcoal is medium-hot or the heating elements are hot.
• Using a sharp knife, cut pockets into the chops by slicing horizontally into the thickest side, working the knife through the meat nearly to the other side. Wiggle the knife in the meat to make the pockets.
• Using your fingers or a spoon, stuff the pockets with the sausage mixture until overflowing. Tie the chops like a package with kitchen twine to hold the stuffing in place. Rub both sides of the chops with the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil and season well with salt and pepper.
• Grill the pork chops, turning once with tongs, for a total 10 to 15 minutes, until browned and cooked through. If you are not sure the meat is done, insert an instant-read thermometer into the stuffing; it should read 165°F. Remove the string, let the chops rest for about 5 minutes, and serve.

• Meanwhile for stuffing, in a saucepan, cook mushrooms and onion in hot butter until onion is tender. Remove from heat. Stir in grated ginger, the 1/4 teaspoon salt, and the 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Add spinach and bread crumbs, tossing gently to combine.
• Make a pocket in each chop by cutting horizontally from the outside edge almost to the bone. Divide stuffing evenly among pockets in chops. Secure openings with water-soaked wooden picks. Sprinkle chops with salt and pepper.
• To bake stuffed chops, after stuffing and sprinkling chops with salt and pepper, brown in a small amount of oil in a large skillet. Transfer to a baking dish. Bake, uncovered, in a 375°F oven for 35 to 45 minutes or until juices run clear (160°F), brushing with ginger preserves during the last 5 minutes of baking.
• Meanwhile, trim roots and tops of the green onions. In a medium skillet, cook green onions in hot oil for 1 to 3 minutes or until slightly softened. Serve green onions with the chops.

• In a grill with a cover arrange medium-hot coals around a drip pan. Test for medium heat above pan. Place chops on grill rack over pan.
