Blue Cheese Stuffed Pork Loin Chops Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. Coat a roasting pan with cooking spray.
• Cook bacon in a large skillet over medium-high heat until crisp. Remove from pan, reserving fat in pan, and crumble into small pieces. To the same pan, add squash and onion and cook 3 minutes, until onion is soft. Remove from heat, add to a large bowl with the crumbled bacon, bread crumbs, 1/2 cup of the blue cheese, 2 tablespoons of the sage, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Mix well.
• Butterfly pork on a flat surface and spread stuffing evenly over meat. Roll up pork and tie with kitchen twine at 2-inch intervals. Season pork all over with salt and black pepper and transfer to prepared pan. Roast 15 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 325 degrees F and bake 45 more minutes, until an instant-read thermometer registers 160 degrees F for medium-well. Let pork rest 10 minutes before cutting crosswise into 1-inch thick slices.
• In a small saucepan, whisk together chicken broth, sherry and cornstarch. Set pan over medium heat and bring to a simmer. Add remaining 2 tablespoons blue cheese and tablespoon of sage and simmer 1 minute, until sauce thickens. Remove from heat and season, to taste, with salt and black pepper. Serve 1/2 of the pork with all of the sauce spooned over top. Reserve remaining pork for quesadillas.

Steps:

• Dissolve 1/4 cup salt and the sugar in 3 cups warm water in a large bowl. Insert a paring knife into the curved side of each pork chop to make a deep pocket, about 2 inches wide. Soak the chops in the brine, about 5 minutes. Meanwhile, finely chop the escarole and garlic. Toss with 2 tablespoons olive oil, and salt and pepper to taste. Remove the chops from the brine and pat dry. Fold each cheese slice and tuck into the pocket of a pork chop, then stuff with the escarole mixture. Brush the pork with olive oil, sprinkle with the sage and season with salt and pepper. Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the pork in batches, turning once, until golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Transfer to a plate. Add the beans and 1/3 cup water to the skillet, scraping up any browned bits; season with salt and pepper. Return the pork to the skillet, cover and cook over medium heat until no longer pink, 5 to 7 more minutes. Serve the pork with the beans.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Grease a shallow baking dish.
• In a small bowl, mix together the blue cheese, bacon and chives. Divide into halves, and pack each half into a loose ball. Place each one into a pocket of a butterflied pork chop, close, and secure with toothpicks. Season each chop with garlic salt and pepper. Keep in mind that the blue cheese will be salty. Place in the prepared baking dish.
• Bake for 20 minutes in the preheated oven, or it may take longer if your chops are thicker. Cook until the stuffing is hot, and chops are to your desired degree of doneness. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve.

Steps:

• Melt butter in a large skillet, over medium heat. Season the pork chops with black pepper and garlic powder. Fry the chops in butter until no longer pink and the juices run clear, about 20 to 25 minutes. Turn occasionally to brown evenly.
• Remove chops to a plate and keep warm. Stir the whipping cream into the skillet, loosening any bits of meat stuck to the bottom. Stir in blue cheese. Cook, stirring constantly until sauce thickens, about 5 minutes. Pour sauce over warm pork chops.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• To prepare the stuffing, place all ingredients in a bowl and stir until well mixed.
• Butterfly (cut lengthwise almost all the way through) the pork loin. Butterfly again on the left side and on the right side.
• Spread the stuffing evenly over the loin. Roll the loin up like a jelly roll and tie securely at 2-to-3 inch intervals with kitchen twine.
• Place the loin in a shallow roasting pan. Sprinkle with garlic salt and black pepper.
• Roast for 45-60 minutes, or until internal temperature is 150-155°F Let stand for 1 minutes.
• Slice the pork, removing twine as necessary.

Steps:

• With a sharp knife, make a horizontal slit in one of the wide sides of each chop but do not cut completely through to any of the other sides.
• Use the knife, your finger, or the handle portion of a wooden spoon to expand the void in the chop as large as possible.
• The goal is to make a pocket for the cheese (picture a coin purse, where only the top is open).
• Use as much of the cheese as is necessary to fill the pocket.
• Secure with toothpicks in such a way that the chops will still lay levelly in a pan.
• Heat olive oil in a saute pan.
• Make several slices through the garlic yet keeping each clove intact.
• Fry in the oil till brown but not burned, then remove from pan.
• Season chops with salt, pepper, and thyme.
• Brown the chops in the oil on each side.
• The cheese will probably begin to melt and leak from the chop, but don't worry about this.
• When chops are well browned, add the wine (as much as necessary to come about halfway up the sides of the chops) to the saute pan, cover and simmer for 5-10 minutes or until they are cooked through.
• Remove them from pan directly to dinner plate.
• Stir the cheese that has leaked out from the chops well into the wine and cooking juices, still over the heat, until you have a well-incorporated sauce.
• This should only take a moment.
• Serve sauce over the chops immediately, and enjoy.
