Popular Pork Chops
This week’s show is dedicated to our “Most Requested Recipes.”
(This show aired Saturday, March 25. Because of a Sam Choy’s Kitchen production schedule change, recipes printed in MidWeek last week are from the Saturday, April 1, show.)
CRAB AND SHIITAKE MUSHROOM STUFFED PORK CHOPS
* 4 pork chops, 2-inch-cut and butterflied

In saucepan, sauté garlic, onions and shiitake mushrooms in butter. Add crab meat and panko flakes and mix well. Season with thyme, salt and pepper. Set aside and cool before stuffing pork chops.
Season pork chops with salt and pepper. Massage pork chops with minced fresh garlic and stuff in pockets. Stuff pork chops tightly with 1/2 cup of stuffing. In a sauté pan, brown pork chops in a little olive oil. Finish off in a 350-degree oven for about 25 minutes. Serve with Shiitake Mushroom Cream Sauce.

In a pot, scald milk and half of the heavy cream. Beat egg yolks in a mixing bowl. Add remaining heavy cream and beat well. Gradually stir the hot cream mixture into the yolk mixture. Season with salt and pepper.
