Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Bone-in or boneless pork chops
- 2 cans (10.5 oz each) Cream of mushroom soup
- 1 cup Chicken broth
- 1 packet Onion soup mix
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons All-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon Chopped fresh parsley (optional for garnish)
Instructions
Season both sides of the pork chops with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, sear the pork chops for 2-3 minutes on each side until browned. This helps lock in the flavor. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the all-purpose flour and whisk into the drippings to make a roux. Cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly, until golden brown. Gradually whisk in the chicken broth until smooth and slightly thickened, then remove from heat.
In a 6-quart crock pot, combine the cream of mushroom soup, onion soup mix, and the prepared roux. Mix well to create a creamy gravy base.
Nestle the seared pork chops into the gravy mixture in the crock pot, ensuring they are fully coated and submerged.
Cover the crock pot with a lid and cook on low for 6 hours or on high for 3-4 hours, until the pork chops are tender and fully cooked to an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).
If the gravy needs to be thickened further, remove the lid in the last 30 minutes of cooking or stir in a cornstarch slurry (1 tablespoon of cornstarch mixed with 2 tablespoons of water).
Serve the pork chops hot, smothered in the rich gravy, over mashed potatoes, rice, or egg noodles. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley if desired.
