Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup fresh corn kernels
  • 1/2 cup cherry tomatoes, quartered

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 375. Spray a 13×9-inch baking dish with cooking spray.

  2. In a small bowl, stir together corn, tomatoes, 1/2 cup basil, 1 tbsp. flour, 1/2 tsp salt and 1/2 tsp pepper.

  3. Carefully cut a pocket into side of each pork chop, cutting to within 1/2 inch on either side. Spoon corn mixture into pockets; sprinkle chops with remaining 1 tsp salt and remaining 1/2 tsp pepper. Place in prepared pan.

  4. In a small bowl, stir together muffin mix, remaining 1/4 cup basil, and remaining 1 tbsp. flour. Using a pastry blender or 2 forks, cut in butter until mixture is crumbly. Sprinkle generously onto pork chops.
