Ginger Pork and Stuffing Skillet

For a great flavor variation, use garlic powder instead of ground ginger. Serve with buttered broccoli and sugar snap peas along with spice cake for dessert.

Recipe Ingredients:

3 tablespoons butter or margarine - divided use
4 boneless pork top loin chops, 1/2 inch thick
Ground pepper to taste
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1 2/3 cups water
1 (6-ounce) package STOVE TOP® Stuffing Mix for Pork
2 tablespoons orange marmalade or apricot preserves

Cooking Directions:

1. In large nonstick skillet, melt 1 tablespoon butter over medium-high heat. Sprinkle chops lightly with pepper; add to skillet. Cook about 5 minutes or until chops are slightly pink in center, turning once. Remove chops from skillet.
2. Stir remaining 2 tablespoons butter and ginger into skillet; add water. Bring to boiling. Stir in stuffing mix just to moisten. Top with chops. Spoon orange marmalade or apricot preserves over chops. Cover and cook over low heat for 3 to 4 minutes or until heated through.

Makes 4 servings.
