Almost never used by myself but there is another tool in the box 
that’s meant to help here —

	NAME
	     PlistBuddy – read and write values to plists
	
	SYNOPSIS
	     PlistBuddy [-cxh] file.plist
	
	DESCRIPTION
	     The PlistBuddy command is used to read and modify values inside of 
a plist. Unless specified by
	     the -c switch, PlistBuddy runs in interactive mode.
	…

Option -a outputs the plist file in human ‘readable’ form
