Cranberry Dressing Stuffed Pork Chops
1/2 cup fresh or frozen cranberries
2 outer stalks of celery
1 small onion
1 sprig parsley (optional)
2 Tbsp butter
1/2 tsp poultry seasoning
Dash of pepper
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp sugar
6 1-1/2 inch rib pork chops
Finely chop cranberries, celery, onion and parsley. Sauté in butter for a few minutes. Combine with other ingredients.
Select 6 rib pork chops 1-1/2 inch thick. (Have butcher cut a pocket through the lean part to the bone of each chop.) Stuff the chops with the cranberry dressing; fasten with skewers or toothpicks. Brown the chops quickly on each side in a hot skillet. Add gravy (below). Cover tightly. Reduce heat and simmer slowly for 45-60 minutes until tender.
Gravy: Mix 1 packet brown gravy mix with 1/2 cup boiling water, 1/4 cup cranberry sauce and 1/4 cup red wine.
(This recipe also works nicely with a crock pot or other slow cooker.)
