Ingredients
- 4 boneless or bone-in pork chops
- 4 potatoes, cut into chunks
- 1 can cream of mushroom soup
- 1 envelope onion soup mix
- ¼ cup milk
- Salt, pepper, and paprika to taste
Swaps and Notes
- Soup Options: Try cream of celery or cream of chicken for variation.
- Chop Type: Boneless is quicker and leaner, but bone-in adds more flavor and moisture.
- Vegetable Add-ins: Add carrots, onions, or mushrooms between the potato and pork layers for more depth.
Directions
- Preheat Oven: Set to 350°F (175°C).
- Prep the Dish: Lightly grease a baking dish with nonstick spray or butter.
- Layer Potatoes: Arrange the potatoes in the bottom of the dish. Season lightly with salt, pepper, and paprika.
- Add Pork Chops: Season pork chops with salt, pepper, and a dash more paprika. Place over the potatoes.
- Make the Sauce: In a bowl, mix together the cream of mushroom soup, onion soup mix, and milk until smooth.
- Assemble & Bake: Pour the sauce evenly over the pork and potatoes. Cover tightly with foil.
- Bake for 60 minutes. Remove foil for the last 6 minutes to allow light browning.
- Rest: Turn off the oven and let the dish rest inside for 10 minutes. Serve hot with sauce spooned over the top.
Tips for Success
- Slice Potatoes Evenly: Keeps cooking consistent and prevents underdone bites.
- Use a Deep Dish: The sauce bubbles and spreads, so use a dish deep enough to catch everything.
- Don’t Overcook: Check the pork at the 55-minute mark to keep it juicy, not dry.
