Baked Pork Chops With Apple Stuffing

• 2/3 cup chopped celery
• 1/3 cup chopped onion
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 2 cups unseasoned stuffing cubes
• 1/2 cup chopped peeled apple
• 1/4 cup chicken broth
• 2 tablespoons minced fresh parsley
• 1/8 teaspoon salt
• 1/8 teaspoon pepper
• 4 bone-in pork loin chops (1 inch thick)
• 1/8 teaspoon salt
• 1/8 teaspoon pepper
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 tablespoon butter
• 1/2 cup chicken broth
• 1-1/2 cups chopped peeled apple
• 3 tablespoons chopped walnuts
• 3 tablespoons maple syrup

1. In a large skillet, saute celery and onion in butter until tender. Place in a large bowl. Stir in the remaining stuffing ingredients.
2. Cut a pocket in each pork chop by slicing almost to the bone; fill with stuffing mixture. Secure with toothpicks. Sprinkle pork with salt and pepper.
3. In a large skillet, brown chops in oil and butter on both sides. Transfer to a greased 13x9-in. baking dish. Add broth to the skillet, stirring to loosen browned bits from pan; stir in the apple, walnuts and syrup. Pour over pork chops.
4. Cover and bake at 350u0b0 for 50-60 minutes or until a thermometer reads 160u0b0. Discard toothpicks before serving.
