Ingredients

Scale
  • 4–6 boneless or bone-in pork chops (about 2 lbs)
  • 1 box (6 oz) classic herb-seasoned stuffing mix
  • 1 can (10.5 oz) cream of mushroom soup
  • 1 cup sour cream (full-fat preferred)
  • 1 cup low-sodium chicken broth
  • 4 tablespoons butter, melted
  • 1 small onion, finely diced (about 1/2 cup)
  • 1–2 stalks celery, diced (about 1/2 cup)
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • Salt & pepper to taste (about 1/2 teaspoon salt and a pinch of black pepper)
  • Optional: 1/2 cup shredded cheddar or mozzarella cheese
  • Optional: 1 cup sliced mushrooms
  • Optional: Fresh parsley or thyme for garnish

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9×13-inch casserole dish with butter or nonstick spray.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine stuffing mix with melted butter and chicken broth. Stir until just moistened and let sit for 5 minutes.
  3. Pat pork chops dry. Season both sides with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Optionally, add paprika or dried thyme.
  4. Optional: Sear pork chops in a skillet with a splash of oil over medium-high heat for 2–3 minutes per side.
  5. Spread half the stuffing mixture into the bottom of the casserole dish. Arrange pork chops over stuffing.
  6. In a bowl, whisk together cream of mushroom soup and sour cream until smooth. Fold in diced onion and celery if using. Pour evenly over pork chops.
  7. Spoon remaining stuffing over the sauce, covering as much as possible. Press lightly for an even top.
  8. Cover dish tightly with foil and bake for 30 minutes.
  9. Remove foil and bake uncovered for 10–15 minutes, until stuffing is golden and sauce is bubbling.
  10. Check pork chops for doneness (internal temp should reach 145°F). Add 5 extra minutes for thick chops if needed.
  11. Let casserole rest for 5–10 minutes before serving to allow sauce to thicken.

Notes

For gluten-free, use gluten-free stuffing mix and check soup labels. Searing pork chops adds flavor but is optional. Add extra broth if stuffing seems dry. Cheese or mushrooms can be added for variation. Let casserole rest before serving for best texture.
