Ingredients

2 tablespoons olive or vegetable oil, divided
2 leeks, white part only, rinsed and chopped
1 McIntosh or Granny Smith apple, cored and diced
2 teaspoons dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary
Salt and pepper
1 1/2 cups unseasoned bread cubes (or cut up day-old bread)
1/2 cup reduced-sodium chicken broth or enough to moisten bread
4 (5-ounce) boneless pork chops, about 1-inch thick, trimmed of fat

Directions

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.

Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add leek and apple and saute 4 minutes, until tender and golden. Add oregano, rosemary, and salt and pepper, to taste, and stir to coat. Transfer mixture to a large bowl and add bread cubes and chicken broth. Mix well and set aside.

Using a sharp knife, slice pockets into chops by slicing horizontally into the side, and almost through to the other side. Season the outside with salt and pepper. Stuff chops with apple mixture, allowing stuffing to overflow out of pockets.

Heat remaining oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add pork chops and sear on 1 side until browned, 3 to 4 minutes. Flip chops and transfer to oven to finish cooking for 8 to 10 minutes, or until cooked through.

Fine, but wouldn't make again
Rated: 3 stars out of 5

Agree with other posters - needs more time for the chops and the stuffing. Stuffing had an odd flavor even with decreasing... the oregano to 1tsp. The dish was certainly edible, but I wouldn't make it again.Read more

Delicious
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

This was soo good, I used celery instead of leeks though (not that it made much difference) It was so delicious but instead... of stuffing the pork, I just seared the chops and put them in a baking dish with the stuffing all on the sides. It came out so good, the stuffing was moist but cruncy on top. Definitely a keeper!Read more

I'll make this one again
Rated: 4 stars out of 5

I decided not to stuff the pork chops. Instead, I seared the seasoned chops 4 minutes per side after I'd prepared the... stuffing. The stuffing went into a 13x9x2 baking dish, and the chops went on top. This then baked for 10 minutes at 400. The chops were delicious, and so was the stuffing, although the recipe calls for too much dried oregano. It stood out and I couldn't taste the rosemary.Read more

Delish!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

This was absolutely delicious. I made this with butterflied centre chops & skewered them closed with toothpicks I soaked in... water for 10 minutes. I grilled the chops on the BBQ instead of in the oven and they were great. The other change I made was to add about 1/2 cup of dried cranberries to the stuffing.Read more

not very good
Rated: 1 stars out of 5

I haven't have a lot of luck cooking pork chops (they always turn out too tough). Unfortunately these pork chops turned out... dry and rubbery and the stuffing was soggy. The chops were very underdone at 10 minutes so I left them in for 5 minutes longer and they were still pink. Oh well.Read more

Delicious & Easy
Rated: 4 stars out of 5

These were so good and easy to make. I didn't have leeks or leftover bread, so substituted red onion & Stove Top stuffing and... it worked well. I will definitely make this again.Read more
