Ingredients:
1/4 c. finely chopped onion

Method:
To make stuffing, in saucepan, cook onion with garlic in butter until tender; add bread and parsley. Trim excess fat from chops. Slit each chop from outer edge toward bone making a pocket; stuff with bread mixture. Fasten with toothpicks or skewers. In skillet, brown chops; pour off fat. Blend in soup, sour cream, water and caraway. Cover; cook over low heat 1 hour and 15 minutes or until done; stir occasionally. Add apple; heat. The apple should be crisp tender.
