Recipe Notes

• Total cooking time will vary depending on the size and thickness of your pork chops. The type of baking dish that you use can also impact the cooking
time (dark, nonstick metal pans or a cast iron pan will cook the meat faster than a ceramic or glass dish, for instance). As a result, a meat thermometer
is the best way to know when your pork is done. The meat is ready when it reaches an internal temperature of 145 degrees F.• I’ve used thick-cut boneless
pork chops here, but you can certainly substitute with bone-in pork chops. If using bone-in chops, you’ll likely need to extend the baking time before
removing your foil cover.• You can serve the apples and onions on the side of your pork chops, or just leave them in the dish if your family doesn’t want
to eat them. They flavor the pork nicely either way!• I’ve shown
Stove Top Chicken Stuffing Mix
here, but you can substitute with any flavor that you prefer — cornbread or turkey stuffing would work equally well! Also, feel free to use a different
brand of stuffing mix (such as
Pepperidge Farm),
or even use
leftover homemade stuffing.
You’ll need a total of about 3 cups of prepared stuffing for this recipe.• Spraying the foil with cooking spray before covering your dish helps to prevent
the stuffing from sticking to the foil!• For an extra-sweet treat, serve pork chops with stuffing and apple pie filling! To do so, simply use a can of
prepared apple pie filling in the bottom of your casserole dish in lieu of the chopped fresh apple.• I prefer firm-flesh apples that don’t break down as
easily during the cooking process, so Granny Smith, Honey Crisp, Braeburn, or Fuji are all great options.• Prep ahead! You can assemble the casserole in
advance, cover and refrigerate until ready to bake. You could even freeze it before baking! Allow the dish to sit on the counter and come to room temperature
before baking according to recipe instructions.
