Roquefort Stuffed Pork Chops Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat a grill pan or a cast iron pan over high heat. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Rub the pork chops with vegetable oil and then season liberally with salt and pepper. In the hot pan, sear the pork on both sides until there is a golden brown crust or good sear marks from the grill. Remove the pan from the heat.
• In a small mixing bowl, combine the apples, Roquefort blue cheese, jalapeno peppers, and chives. Taste the mixture and season with salt, and pepper, to taste.
• Lay the pork chops on a cutting board with the meaty side facing you. Using a paring knife cut a pocket into the pork, about 3/4 of the way through and work it open gently with your finger to make a pocket. Dividing the stuffing evenly among the chops, stuff the pocket with the stuffing and put a toothpick through the opening to help keep the stuffing inside the pork. Bake the pork in the oven for about 20 minutes, until the internal temperature is 125 degrees F. Remove from the oven and hold covered loosely with foil to let carry over to 135 degrees F internal temperature.
• Meanwhile, in a large saute pan, combine the butter, shallots, and garlic. Turn on the heat to medium-high. Cook until the butter starts to turn brown. Add the blanched beans and toss until heated all the way through. Season the beans with salt, and pepper, to taste.
• On each plate, make a pile of beans, put the pork chop on top of the beans and top the chop with a good spoonful of the onion jam.
• To make the Three-Onion Cherry Jam:
• In a large saucepan, over medium heat, heat the oil. Add the yellow onion, red onion, and shallots to the pan and stir well. Season the onions with salt, and pepper, to taste.
• When the onions have cooked down and they are deepening in color, deglaze the pan with the red wine. Let the wine cook until reduced and absorbed by the onions. Cook the onions for about 5 minutes more, then add the cherry juice and red wine vinegar. Reduce the heat to medium-low heat, and let cook at a slow simmer. Add the thyme, rosemary, and bay leaf. Let the onions cook down until they start taking on a soft texture and the liquid is reduced and absorbed by the onions. Stir in 2 tablespoons brown sugar and honey. Cook, stirring occasionally until the liquid has reduced and the onions have absorbed most of the liquid, about 8 to 10 minutes. Taste the mixture and add more sugar if it is too tart. Test the consistency of the jam by drizzling a spoonful of it onto a plate and letting it cool. It should be thick and not runny. If it is too runny, simmer the mixture longer until more liquid is cooked out.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
• Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onions and saute until translucent, about 7 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the breadcrumbs, salt, pepper and garlic powder. Stir in the beaten egg and parsley.
• To cut pockets into the pork chops, insert the point of a small sharp knife horizontally into the fat-covered edge. Move the knife back and forth to create a deep pocket about 1 1/2 inches wide.
• Fill the pocket of each chop with the breadcrumb mixture. Secure the openings with toothpicks.
• Place the flour in a shallow bowl. Dredge the stuffed chops lightly in the flour, shaking off the excess. Wipe out the skillet used previously for the stuffing and place it over medium-high heat. Add the oil and, when hot, add the chops. Sear over medium heat until lightly browned, about 3 minutes per side.
• Place a rack in a roasting or baking pan and add water, being careful not to cover the rack with water. Place the chops on the rack and cover the roaster with the lid or aluminum foil. Bake the chops for 1 hour. Let rest, remove the toothpicks and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Cut each pork chop horizontally in half to bone (or almost through if using boneless chops), making pocket for stuffing.
• Melt 1 tablespoon butter in heavy medium skillet over medium heat. Add bread and sauté until golden, about 10 minutes. Transfer to medium bowl. Melt 1 tablespoon butter in same skillet. Add mushrooms, onion and rosemary and sauté until onion is soft, about 5 minutes. Add to bread. Refrigerate until mixture is completely cool, about 15 minutes.
• Mix Roquefort into bread mixture; season with salt and pepper. Insert stuffing into pockets in pork, dividing equally. Skewer pockets closed with toothpicks if necessary. Sprinkle pork with salt and pepper.
• Melt remaining 1 tablespoon butter in heavy large ovenproof skillet over high heat. Add pork to skillet; sauté until brown, about 2 minutes per side. Place skillet in oven. Bake pork until cooked through, about 25 minutes.

Steps:

• Bring brine ingredients to a boil in a small saucepan. Turn off heat and cool. Add up to 10 ice cubes if you are in a hurry.
• Place pork chops in cooled brine to marinate from eight hours to overnight in the fridge.
• Remove pork chops from brine and discard brining liquid. Pat pork chops dry.
• Cut the bread into 1/2-inch cubes. In a cup, mix egg, cream and final chicken broth together.
• Gather remaining ingredients as the dish goes together quickly once started. You will need two good-sized frying pans, one for the pork chops and one for the dressing.
• Preheat pan on med-hi heat, add olive oil and butter and fry pork chops 3-4 minutes per side. Remove from heat and place a tightly-fitted lid on pork chops. Don't worry, they aren't supposed to be done yet.
• Now, in the second pan, sauté the onion and raisins in butter over medium-hi heat for a few minutes. Add cilantro and cubed bread and sauté for a couple more minutes.
• Remove from heat and stir in egg mixture a little at a time, so that you don't end up with scrambled eggs. When soaked in, return to heat and cook for a few more minutes.
• At this point, the pork chops will have finished cooking. Serve the pork chops with the stuffing on the side.
• Note: Please use the second pan so that the dressing will compliment the pork chops rather than tasting just like them. It's worth washing the second pan!

Steps:

• Peel your shrimp. In a small sauce pan add your chicken stock, the shrimp peels and the small bunch of thyme stems with leaves still on. Bring to a boil. Turn down heat to low and let simmer for 10 minutes. Then strain broth into bowl. Set aside.
• In a sauté pan add your tablespoon of olive oil and turn heat to med-high. Add your zucchini, summer squash, red and green bell pepper, onion, chopped green onion tops (set bottoms aside for later), and half your minced garlic. Sauté for 2-3 minutes or until onions start to turn translucent. Add a tablespoon of the butter and remaining herbs. Let cook for another 2 minutes. Season with 1 teaspoon creole seasoning and ground black pepper to taste. Add French bread torn into small pieces. Stir in broth until it resembles a stuffing.

• Heat oven to 350°F.
• Lay out 4 pork chops in a 12x 8x baking dish. Sprinkle each chop with salt and pepper to taste. Spread a tablespoon of goat cheese on each of the four chops. Spoon about 1/2 of a cup stuffing on top of chop and then cover each chop with another chop. Sprinkle top of chop with salt and black pepper to taste. Wrap each stuffed chop with Prosciutto and bake covered in tin foil for 45 minutes.
• Meanwhile.
• In your buttery pan add the green onion bottoms finely chopped, and the rest of the minced garlic. Sauté for 2 minutes and then add the white wine. Simmer for 2 more minutes and then add the 1/2 teaspoon creole seasoning and the heavy cream. Reduce on med heat until sauce coats the back of a spoon. Add the other half of cooked shrimp and the other half of the lump crab meat. Add more creole seasoning and fresh black pepper to taste (optional).
• Once the pork chops are out of the oven, let them rest for about 10 minutes before serving.
• Pour the seafood cream sauce over each individual stuffed pork chop when plating.
• It's great over basmati rice with some steamed green beans or asparagus. Don't forget the fresh baked french bread.
• I always have left over stuffing. I just put it in a baking dish and cover it with Romano cheese. It can store it in the fridge to bake and serve another day or bake it off then and there. Bake at 350°F just until it browns on top.

Scrape into a large bowl and add the bread crumbs, caraway seeds, parsley, teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Add the beaten egg and mix with a fork until blended.
• Fill the chops with the stuffing, then seal the pockets with toothpicks. Season on all sides with salt and pepper. Arrange in a braising pan or other shallow baking dish fitted with a lid. Bake, covered, until a thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the meat, not the stuffing, reaches 155 degrees, 40 to 45 minutes.
