Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat; brown pork chops in the hot oil, 3 to 4 minutes per side.
Bring water and margarine to a boil in a saucepan; add stuffing mix and cover.
Remove saucepan from heat and let stand 5 minutes to absorb water.
Remove cover and fluff stuffing with a fork.
Spread apple pie filling into the prepared baking dish; layer pork chops onto pie filling layer. Spoon stuffing over pork chops. Cover baking dish with aluminum foil.
Bake in the preheated oven for 35 minutes.
Remove aluminum foil and cook until pork is no longer pink in the center, about 10 more minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 160 degrees F (70 degrees C).
Recommended wine: Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Riesling
Pork Chops on the menu? Try pairing with Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Riesling. Chardonnay suits simple chops or chops in a butter or cream sauce, dry riesling complements sweet additions like honey mustard or apples, and pinot noir is a safe bet for pork dishes in general. The Tyler Winery Santa Barbara County Chardonnay with a 4.4 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 30 dollars per bottle.

Tyler Winery Santa Barbara County Chardonnay
2015 brought the earliest vintage of the decade so far. After the large 2013 and 2014 vintages and the continued drought, the vines put forth a fraction of the fruit than the previous two years. They were down approximately 30% overall but the result was exceptional quality and deep, powerful wines with great acidity. Citrus, anise, saline, and energetic.
