Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Season both sides of the pork chops with salt and black pepper.
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Sear the pork chops for 2-3 minutes per side, until browned. Remove the pork chops from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, melt the butter. Add the diced onion and celery, and sauté for 3-4 minutes until softened.
Stir in the canned sweet corn, chicken broth, dried thyme, and garlic powder. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.
Add the seasoned bread stuffing mix to the skillet, stirring to combine. Remove from heat once blended.
Transfer the corn stuffing mixture into a greased 9x13-inch baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
Place the seared pork chops on top of the stuffing mixture in the baking dish.
Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes.
After 25 minutes, remove the foil and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, until the pork chops are cooked through (internal temperature should reach 145°F/63°C) and the stuffing is golden and bubbly.
Remove the dish from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Serve warm and enjoy this comforting Pork Chop and Corn Stuffing Bake!
