Instructions

  • Heat 2 TBS oil in large deep skillet. Season pork chops with a sprinkling of salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder.
  • Place pork chops seasoning side down in hot skillet. Season top side of pork chops with additional salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder.
  • Sear pork chops for 3-4 minutes until browned on bottom. Turn pork chops over and sear on that side for an additional 3-4 minutes until browned on both sides. Remove seared pork chops to a plate and set aside.
  • Add 1 TBS of additional oil to hot skillet over medium heat. Place diced celery and onion, and the chopped apples. Season with a sprinkling of salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Sear until lightly browned on all sides. Turn off heat.
  • Spray a 6 quart crockpot/slow cooker with non-stick cooking spray. Place 1/2 of the cooked celery, onion, and apples in crockpot. Place all of the seared pork chops on top. Place rest of the celery, onion, and apples on top of pork chops.
  • Mix both cans of cream of soups with 1 can full of chicken broth. Pour over the pork chops and veggies in crockpot.
  • In a separate medium bowl mix until combined the melted butter, stuffing mix, and 1 cup of chicken broth. Place stuffing mixture in crockpot on top of the cream of soup mixture and spread evenly.
  • Place lid on crockpot and cook on high for 4 hours or on low for 6 hours. Timing will depend on thickness of pork chops. May need more time for thick pork chops. Enjoy.
