How to make it
- For the apples:
- Peel and core apples. Cut apples into 1/2-inch cubes. Heat butter in heavy skillet over medium-high heat until just beginning to brown. Add apples and sauté until just tender, about 8 minutes. Add all remaining ingredients and sauté for another 3 minutes. Transfer to serving plate and serve lukewarm or at room temperature.
- For stuffed pork chops:
- Briefly toast the bread cubes in the oven for about 10 minutes at 425 degrees. Add to food processor to slightly break up the cubes. In a large skillet, melt butter and saute onion, mushrooms and celery until cooked and most of the juices have evaporated. Add bread crumbs and herbs. Mix well then add cream, just enough to moisten. Season with salt and pepper and let cool.
- Meanwhile, wash and pat dry chops. Using a boning knife, make a 1-inch slit in the center of each side. Using the knife, widen the pocket but leave the opening only 1-inch wide.
- Heat oven to 375 degrees. Stuff each pork chop until they are nice and plump (you may have leftover stuffing). Season both sides of chops with salt and pepper and sear in a nonstick pan with a little olive oil until nicely browned.
- Place chops in a shallow baking dish and bake, uncovered, about 20-25 minutes. Serve with sauteed apples.
