Pork Chop Pockets Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Tear 4 large pieces of aluminum foil, each about 14 inches long. Spray each lightly with cooking spray.
• Mix condensed soup, onion soup mix, and pepper together in a small bowl until well blended.
• Dividing ingredients evenly, place some sliced potatoes on the center of each piece of foil, followed by a pork chop, carrots, mushrooms, green beans, and the condensed soup mixture. Fold the packets by bringing the 2 long ends of foil together and folding over twice to make a seal. Seal the short ends by folding each end over 2 to 3 times; this allows the meat and vegetables to steam. Place the packets on a large cookie sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven until chops are no longer pink in the center and potatoes are tender, about 30 minutes. Allow packets to sit for 5 minutes before opening.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350 degrees. Pat pork chops dry and, using a very sharp paring knife, cut a large pocket into the fat-covered edge of each chop. Season chops all over with 1 teaspoon salt, including inside pockets.
• Finely grate zest from lemon and put in a small bowl. Cut lemon lengthwise in quarters for serving.
• Using a mortar and pestle or the flat side of a knife, mash garlic with a pinch of salt until you get a paste. Add to the bowl with the lemon zest and stir in rosemary, red pepper flakes, fennel seeds, 2 tablespoons fennel fronds and 1 tablespoon olive oil.
• Divide filling between pork chops, stuffing some inside pockets and rubbing the rest on the outside.
• Heat a large ovenproof skillet over high heat and add 1 tablespoon olive oil. Sear pork chops on one side for 5 minutes, or until golden brown. Gently turn over chops and cook for another minute, then transfer skillet to oven. Cook until meat is just done, about 5 to 10 minutes longer (internal temperature should read 135 degrees on a meat thermometer). Transfer pork chops to a plate, tent with foil, and let rest for 10 minutes before serving. Garnish with fennel fronds and lemon wedges.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Lay out a piece of aluminum foil large enough to hold the ingredients. Place the pork chops, on the foil, then place the sweet potato, onion and apple over the chops. Fold up and seal each package.
• Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 45 minutes, or until the potato is soft when pricked with a fork. (Note: Do not open packages while baking as this will allow the steam to escape and will dry out the pork chops. Also, be careful when opening as the steam can burn.)

Steps:

• Cut a 4 to 5 inch long slit to make a pocket in each chop.
• In pan over medium heat, combine pineapple, water, celery, onion, butter brown sugar soy sauce vinegar and onion powder.
• Heat to boing, stirring occasionally.
• Add stuffing mix toss lightly to coat.
• Spoon mixture into pork chop pockets.
• Arrange chops, stuffing side up in an oblong baking dish.
• Cover with foil bake at 350 degrees for 20 minutes.
• Uncover and bake an additional 25 minutes or until stuffing is golden brown and chops are no longer pink.

Steps:

• Tear off 4 pieces of heavy duty aluminum foil abut 24 inches long.
• Fold in half, shiny sides inches.
• Lightly butter center of foil.
• Place some of the potato slices and carrots on each piece; top with chops.
• Wrap loosely around meat and vegetbles, using tight double or triple folds.
• Seal one end, again using tight folds.
• Leave other end open.
• Combine water, milk and seasoning mix; pour into open end of pockets and seal with tight double folds.
• Place on grill over hot coals; grill 40 to 50 minutes, turning frequently until chops are cooked and potatoes are tender.

Steps:

• Preheat oven or grill to 350F, cut 4 1 1/2 feet long pieces of foil and place a pork chop in the center of two.
• Top evenly with the onions, peppers, mushrooms, and garlic.
• Sprinkle with the seasoning salt (1 teaspoon per pocket).
• Lay the other two pieces of foil on top with the first two and tightly roll the edges in.
• Poke 2 holes in the tops of each bag and bake or grill for 30 minutes.
