Pork Chop Stuffing Bake
It doesn’t get much easier than a package of pork chops, a can of condensed cream of mushroom soup, some sautéed veggies, and savory stuffing mix.
We love this combo for an easy weeknight dinner, because it only takes about 10 minutes to prep, about 5 minutes of stovetop time, then the rest of the time is hands-off!
The best part? This pork chop stuffing bake is 100% customizable. Don’t like cream of mushroom soup, swap it out with one you do like!
Don’t want celery? Leave it out!
The ingredients in this pork chop and stuffing bake are minimal and your family is going to love it. Everyone will be coming back for seconds!
Pork Chop and Stuffing Bake Tips
Tips
- Don’t over bake the pork chops! When pork chops are over baked, they become dry, tough, and difficult to cut.
- Wrap the pan tightly with foil. You’ll want to make sure the pan is wrapped tightly so the pork chops don’t dry out.
- Cook to the correct temp. Make sure to cook the pork chops until they reach an internal temperature of 145°F.
Substitutions and Variations
- Condensed Soup: If you aren’t a fan of cream of mushroom soup or don’t have it handy, try cream of chicken or cream of celery instead.
- Sautéed Veggies: For a super simple recipe, omit the celery and onions. It may alter the flavor, but it removes an entire step.
- Omit the Sour Cream: I love to add sour cream to add extra creaminess, but you don’t have to use it. Or, add a little milk, heavy cream, or half and half instead.
- For extra flavor, add some Worcestershire sauce or soy sauce to the soup mixture.
- Seasonings: Garlic powder is a flavorful mix-in, but don’t forget about paprika, thyme, onion powder, sage, or your other favorite seasonings.
- Choose your favorite stuffing flavor. There are several different varieties and flavors of stuffing mix. I love savory herb stuffing, but turkey and chicken are some other tasty options.
Storage
Refrigerator: Store leftover pork chop and stuffing bake in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
Reheating: Microwave leftover pork chops until warmed through, or warm in the oven on 350°F to help maintain texture.
FAQs
The pork chops need to be between ½ and ¾-inch thick; otherwise, the cooking time needs to be adjusted.
Yes, you can use bone-in pork chops, but I’d recommend searing them first. And, you’ll want to increase the cooking time to ensure they cook all the way through.
About 5 minutes before the pork chops finish baking, remove the foil from the pan. Let the pork chop stuffing bake cook uncovered the rest of the way.
The top of the stuffing should dry out a little and become crunchy and delicious. For stuffing with a little more moisture, add ½ cup extra chicken broth.

Pork Chops and Soup Base
Heat a medium skillet over low-medium heat. Add the butter, onion, celery, and garlic powder. Cook for 4-5 minutes until the vegetables soften then remove from heat.
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
½ cup white onion
¼ cup celery
½ teaspoon garlic powder
In a large mixing bowl combine the sautéed vegetables, cream of mushroom soup, and sour cream. Spoon the mixture over the pork chops.
1 (10 ½ ounce) can cream of mushroom soup

Fluff the stuffing with a fork, and spoon it over the soup mixture. Cover the pan tightly with aluminum foil, and bake for 20-30 minutes (adjust the time depending on the thickness of the pork chops).
Remove the foil about 5 minutes before the pork chops finish cooking, and return the pan to oven to crisp up the stuffing. Ensure the pork chops reach 145°F on an instant read thermometer. Serve warm!

Notes
*The calories listed are an approximation based on the ingredients in the recipe card and a serving size of 1 pork chop with stuffing topping. Actual calories will vary.
*Adjust the time depending on the thickness of the pork chops. Thin pork chops take about 20 minutes while thicker pork chops take 30-35 minutes. The ones in the photos were thinly cut, about ½-inch or just a smidge under, so they didn’t as long to bake.
