Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil

  • 4 large boneless pork chops, that can be butterflied

  • 3 tablespoons butter

  • 2 sweet apples of your choice, peeled and chopped

  • 1 ½ cups crumbled gorgonzola cheese

Directions

  1. Butterfly each pork chop by slicing horizontally through the center with a sharp knife. Leave them attached on one side so they can be flipped open to create a butterfly shape.

  2. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. Add pork chops, reduce heat to medium and cook slowly for 5 to 7 minutes each side, or until they are done to your liking. Set aside.

  3. Melt butter or margarine in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add apples and saute until tender, then turn off heat and add cheese to skillet. Mix together slowly to form a creamy thick sauce.

  4. Place reserved chops on serving plate and stuff each one with 1/4 of the apple/cheese mixture. Serve hot.
