These oven baked stuffed pork chops are SO good, inspired my a meal I had at a local Italian restaurant stuffed with prosciutto, mozzarella and baby spinach then topped with garlic and breadcrumbs.
Stuffed Baked Pork Chops with Prosciutto and Mozzarella
Stuffed Baked Pork Chops with Prosciutto and MozzarellaOther pork chop recipes I love are Pork Chops with Dijon Mustard Sauce, Garlic Lime Marinated Pork Chops, and Crockpot Sazon Pork Chops.
I ordered a similar dish a few nights ago and loved it so much I made them the next day. The pork chops were on the bone, which would also work but what I loved was how the pork chops were sprinkled with breadcrumbs on top rather than completely breaded, which gave them some texture – exactly what I was craving. My lighter version eliminates the butter I am sure they drizzled on top, and I used much less crumbs but I loved the results.
