* Serves 4
== Ingredients ==
* ¼ tsp paprika
* ¼ tsp salt
* ⅛ tsp pepper
* 4 boneless, center-cut pork loin chops (about 4 oz each), all visible fat discarded
* 2 tsp olive oil
* 1 cup fat-free, low-sodium chicken broth
* 1 medium onion, finely chopped
* ⅓ cup finely chopped celery
* 1½ tbsp light tub margarine
* 1½ cups dry cornbread stuffing mix
* ⅛ tsp poultry seasoning
== Directions ==
# Preheat the oven to 350°F.
# In a small bowl, stir together the paprika, salt, and pepper.
# Sprinkle over one side of the pork.
# Heat a medium nonstick skillet over medium heat.
# Add the oil and swirl to coat the bottom.
# Cook the pork with the seasoned side down for 2 minutes, or until just beginning to lightly brown.
# Transfer with the browned side up to a plate.
# Increase the heat to medium-high.
# Stir the broth, onion, and celery into the skillet, scraping to dislodge any browned bits.
# Bring to a boil.
# Reduce the heat and simmer, covered, for 6 minutes, or until the celery is tender.
# Remove from the heat.
# Stir in the margarine.
# Gently stir in the stuffing and poultry seasoning to blend thoroughly.
# Spread evenly in the skillet.
# Add the pork with the browned side up, pressing slightly into the stuffing.
# Bake, covered, for 25 minutes, or until the pork is barely pink in the center.
# Remove from the heat.
# Let stand for 5 minutes to let the pork finish cooking.
== Cook's Tip ==
Covering the skillet during baking helps trap the juices being released from the pork and vegetables, moistening the dressing.
