Recipe(tried): Peachy Stuffed Pork Chops

Made this last night - it was fabulous!

Peachy Stuffed Pork Chops

4 to 6 thick boneless pork chops (at least 2" thick)
1 box stovetop stuffing Pork Flavor
1 can peaches in syrup
2 tbsp. butter
1/2 to 3/4 chopped onion
1/2 to 3/4 chopped celery
1 small jar peach preserves (like all-fruit)

Preheat oven to 375 . I used the convection
mode and set the oven at 350 .

Cut a pocket into each pork chop.

Saute onions and celery in butter
until slightly translucent.

Drain peaches, reserving syrup. Coarsely chop
peaches.

In a mixing bowl, add dry stovetop, peaches,
sauteed onion and celery and any butter in
the pan. Add enough syrup to moisten.

Stuff each little pocket with stovetop
mixture... I really pile it on the top too.

Wrap each chop in a slice of uncooked bacon
and pin it with a toothpick.

Slather the outside of the bacon wrapped chop with the preserves. It helps if you put
the preserves in a small
bowl and stir it around a bit to smooth it out first.

Place stuffed chops in a baking dish and
bake for about 45 minutes depending on
how thick your chops are. Baste the chops
occasionally with the remaining preserves.
