- 2 (6 ounce) thick-cut pork chops
- Stuffing:
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 2 tablespoons bacon bits
- 2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
- 2 teaspoons chopped onion
- 1/2 teaspoon prepared yellow mustard
- 1/2 clove garlic, minced
- 8 toothpicks, or as needed
- Sauce:
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 1/2 cup balsamic vinegar
- 1/4 cup Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon prepared yellow mustard
- 2 cups sour cream
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Lay a pork chop flat on your work surface. Use the tip of a sharp boning or paring knife to create a pocket by making a slit in the side; repeat with remaining pork chops.
- Melt 1 tablespoon butter in a skillet over medium heat; add bacon bits, 2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce, onion, 1/2 teaspoon mustard, and 1/2 clove garlic. Cook and stir until onion is soft and translucent, about 5 minutes. Allow stuffing to cool, 5 to 10 minutes. Stuff into pork chops and secure with 2 crossed toothpicks.
- Heat 2 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Brown pork chops, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer to a baking dish, reserving drippings in skillet. Cover baking dish with aluminum foil.
- Bake in the preheated oven until pork chops are no longer pink in the center, about 30 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).
- Heat reserved drippings in the skillet over medium heat. Add 1 clove garlic, balsamic vinegar, 1/4 cup Worcestershire sauce, and 1 teaspoon mustard; simmer until reduced, about 5 minutes. Stir in sour cream. Coat pork chops with sauce.
