Instructions:
-
Prepare the stuffing mixture: Start by preheating your oven to 400Β°F (200Β°C). In a large mixing bowl, combine the herb-seasoned stuffing mix, drained corn, diced onion, and diced celery. Stir the mixture well, ensuring the ingredients are evenly distributed.
-
Layer the stuffing in the baking dish: Grease a 9-inch pie plate with cooking spray or butter. Spoon the stuffing mixture into the greased dish, spreading it out evenly across the bottom.
-
Add the pork chops: Place the boneless pork chops on top of the stuffing mixture. Make sure the pork chops are evenly spaced, allowing the stuffing to bake underneath while the pork chops remain moist on top.
-
Make the glaze: In a small bowl, mix together the brown sugar and Dijon mustard. Stir until the sugar is fully dissolved into the mustard. Once mixed, spoon this sweet and tangy glaze evenly over the top of the pork chops.
-
Bake the dish: Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 30 minutes. The pork chops should be fully cooked through, and the stuffing should be golden and slightly crispy on the edges. If needed, check the internal temperature of the pork to ensure it has reached 145Β°F (63Β°C) for safety.
-
Serve: Once baked, remove from the oven and allow the dish to rest for a few minutes before serving. Spoon generous portions of the stuffing along with a tender pork chop onto each plate.
Tips for Success:
- Pork Chop Substitution: If you prefer bone-in pork chops, they can also work in this recipe, though you may need to adjust the cooking time slightly.
- Customize the Stuffing: Feel free to add extra vegetables such as bell peppers or carrots to the stuffing for additional flavor and color.
- Make Ahead: You can prepare the stuffing mixture ahead of time and store it in the fridge until youβre ready to bake, making this recipe even more convenient.
