Directions

SUMMARY

  • Prep Time: 10 minutes
  • Cook Time: 15 minutes
  • Yield: Serves: 4

INGREDIENTS

  • 1/2 tsp. freshly ground black pepper
  • 2 Tbsp. apricot preserves or mango chutney
  • 2 Tbsp. spicy brown mustard

DIRECTIONS

  • 1

    Cut a horizontal pocket in the side of each pork chop (or ask your meat retailer to do this for you). Combine 3/4 cup of the cheese and dried apricots; stuff into pockets and pinch edges together to close pockets. Sprinkle thyme, salt and pepper over chops.

  • 2

    Heat a 12-inch ovenproof skillet (wrap handle in foil) coated with cooking spray over medium-high heat until hot. Add chops; cook 4 minutes per side or until browned.

  • 3

    Combine preserves and mustard; spread over chops. Transfer skillet to a preheated broiler. Broil 4 inches from heat source until topping is browned and chops are no longer pink in center, about 3 to 4 minutes. Sprinkle remaining 1/4 cup cheese over chops; return to broiler and broil 1 minute or until cheese is melted.
