Method
Cut a deep pocket into each pork chop. Rub outside of chops with salt and pepper, then set aside. In a medium skillet over medium high heat, saute nuts, onion and garlic in butter about 5 minutes. Add pineapple, soy sauce and lemon pepper then cook 3-5 more minutes. Add bread cubes, coconut and enough pineapple juice to moisten mixture. Stuff chops and secure edges with toothpicks. Heat grill to high and sear chops for about 4 minutes per side. Reduce heat to medium high and continue cooking 8-10 more minutes, until no longer pink inside, brushing with any leftover pineapple juice, if desired. Remove toothpicks and serve hot.
