Garlic Parmesan Stuffed Pork Chops are filled with a creamy filling made from cream cheese, bacon, and Parmesan cheese. They’re coated in Panko crumbs, pan-fried until golden and then they finish cooking in the oven. This is pure comfort food.

 
These stuffed pork chops are quick enough to make for a weeknight meal, but impressive enough for a dinner party. Add a side of mashed potatoes and green beans for a full meal.
HOW TO MAKE GARLIC PARMESAN STUFFED PORK CHOPS:

Start by making the filling. Combine the cream cheese, Parmesan cheese, cooked and crumbled bacon, green onion and garlic powder in a bowl.
Place 1 cup of flour in a shallow dish and 1 1/2 cups of Panko crumbs in another shallow dish. Lightly beat 2 large eggs in a shallow bowl. Cut a pocket (as large as you can) in each pork chop and season with salt and pepper.
Stuff each pocket with filling. Press the seam to seal it as best you can. You can use a toothpick to secure it if you wish.
Coat the pork chops in flour, dip them in egg, and then press Panko crumbs into both sides. Sprinkle the coated pork chops with a little more salt and pepper.
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and heat 2 tablespoons of oil over medium-high heat in an oven-safe skillet.
When hot, add the pork chops and cook until golden on both sides.

 

Transfer the skillet to the oven and cook another 15 to 20 minutes or until the pork is cooked through.
