Ingredients

• 4 thick-cut boneless pork chops
• 1 box (6 ounces) seasoned stuffing mix
• 1 can (10.5 ounces) cream of mushroom soup
• 1 cup chicken broth

How to Make Pork Chop Stuffing Bake

1. Prepare the oven

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.

2. Prepare the stuffing

In a large bowl, combine the seasoned stuffing mix and chicken broth. Stir gently until the stuffing is evenly moistened.

Let it stand for a couple of minutes so the bread can absorb the broth.

3. Add the creamy soup

Fold the cream of mushroom soup into the prepared stuffing until everything is evenly combined.

4. Assemble the casserole

Spread the stuffing mixture evenly across the bottom of the prepared baking dish.

Place the pork chops in a single layer over the stuffing.

5. Cover and bake

Cover the dish tightly with aluminum foil and bake for approximately 25–30 minutes.

6. Finish uncovered

Remove the foil and continue baking for another 15–20 minutes, or until the stuffing is hot and lightly golden and the pork chops reach an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).

7. Rest and serve

Remove the casserole from the oven and let the pork chops rest for 3 minutes before serving.

Spoon some of the creamy stuffing onto each plate alongside the pork chop.

Tips for the Best Pork Chop Stuffing Bake

Use thick-cut pork chops: They are less likely to dry out during baking.

Don’t overmix the stuffing: Stir just enough to distribute the broth and soup evenly.

Cover the casserole first: Foil helps keep the stuffing moist while the pork begins cooking.

Check the pork temperature: Whole pork chops should reach 145°F (63°C), followed by a 3-minute rest.

Easy Variations

If you are not strictly keeping the recipe to four ingredients, sliced mushrooms, onions, garlic powder, or black pepper can be added for extra flavor.

You can substitute cream of chicken soup for cream of mushroom soup.

For a different flavor, try cornbread-style stuffing instead of traditional seasoned stuffing.

Bone-in pork chops can also be used, although they may require additional cooking time depending on thickness.

What to Serve with Pork Chop Stuffing Bake

This bake is hearty on its own, but simple vegetables make excellent sides:

• Green beans
• Roasted carrots
• Steamed broccoli
• Buttered peas
• Cranberry sauce
• Simple green salad

A spoonful of cranberry sauce adds a nice sweet contrast to the savory pork and stuffing.

Storage and Reheating

Store leftover pork and stuffing in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3–4 days.

Reheat individual portions in the microwave until hot throughout, or cover the casserole with foil and warm it in a 325°F oven.

If the stuffing becomes dry, add a small splash of chicken broth before reheating.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use bone-in pork chops?

Yes. Bone-in chops work well, but cooking time may vary. Always use an instant-read thermometer to check for 145°F (63°C).

Can I use cream of chicken soup?

Absolutely. Cream of chicken soup is an easy substitute for cream of mushroom soup.

Can I prepare this ahead of time?

Yes. Assemble the stuffing mixture and pork chops, cover tightly, and refrigerate until ready to bake. Because the casserole will start cold, allow additional baking time.

How do I keep pork chops from drying out?

Use thick-cut chops, keep the casserole covered during the first portion of baking, and remove the pork once it reaches 145°F rather than cooking it unnecessarily longer.
