Notes


  • Want to freeze this dish for later? Purchase the pork chops and slice so they are ready to stuff. Seal them in freezer bags. Make the stuffing and place it in a separate freezer container. Freeze both the chops and the stuffing for up to 1 month. When ready to cook, thaw both chops and stuffing in the refrigerator. Then prepare as directed above.

     

  • The gluten-free corn bread creates a stuffing with the perfect texture-it’s neither soggy nor too dry.
