Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Season the pork chops with salt, black pepper, paprika, and garlic powder on both sides.
Heat the olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet or frying pan over medium-high heat.
Sear the pork chops for 2-3 minutes on each side or until golden brown. Remove the pork chops from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the chopped onion and sauté for 2-3 minutes until softened and fragrant.
Add the uncooked rice to the skillet and stir to coat it in the remaining oil and onion. Let it toast for 1 minute.
Stir in the cream of mushroom soup and chicken or beef broth, mixing well to combine.
Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, then remove the skillet from the heat.
Nestle the seared pork chops into the rice and soup mixture in the skillet.
Cover the skillet with a lid or tightly with foil and transfer it to the preheated oven.
Bake for 40 minutes or until the rice is tender and the pork chops are cooked through (internal temperature of 145°F/63°C).
Carefully remove the skillet from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes, covered.
Garnish with fresh parsley, if desired, and serve hot.
