Instructions

1. 1 Gather all ingredients. Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C).
2. 2 Place pork chops in a large bowl and season all sides with adobo seasoning, sazón seasoning, garlic powder, black pepper, and salt; add 2 tablespoons Italian dressing and flip to coat.
3. 3 Bring 1 1/2 cups water and butter to a boil in a saucepan; add stuffing mix and cover.
4. 4 Remove saucepan from heat and set aside until stuffing absorbs water, about 5 minutes; fluff with a fork.
5. 5 Remove pork chops from the bowl, reserving liquid and seasonings.
6. 6 Lay each pork chop flat on a cutting board and with a sharp knife held parallel to the board, cut a pocket into the pork, leaving three sides intact.
7. 7 Stuff each pork chop with stuffing and close the pocket using a toothpick.
8. 8 Arrange pork chops on a baking sheet. Mix remaining 1 tablespoon Italian dressing and 1 tablespoon water with reserved juices from pork chops; pour over pork chops.
9. 9 Bake in the preheated oven until pork chops are cooked through, 25 to 35 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).
