Ingredients
– 4 bone-in pork chops, about 3 pounds
– Salt and black pepper to taste
– 1/2 teaspoon paprika
– 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
– 1 tablespoon oil
– 10.5 ounces condensed cream of mushroom soup (1 can)
– 10.5 ounces condensed cream of chicken soup (1 can)
– 3/4 cup reduced sodium beef broth
– 2 cups sliced mushrooms
– 1 small onion, sliced
Instructions
1-First, heat the oil over medium-high heat and season the pork chops with salt, pepper, paprika, and garlic powder. Brown the pork on each side for about 3 minutes to lock in the flavors. Once done, remove the pork from the skillet and set it aside.
2-Next, add the condensed cream of mushroom soup, condensed cream of chicken soup, and beef broth to the pan. Whisk this mixture to deglaze and pick up the tasty brown bits from the bottom.
3-Then, layer sliced mushrooms and onions in the bottom of your slow cooker, place the browned pork chops on top, and pour the sauce over everything. Cover and cook on low for 7-8 hours until the pork is tender. For a thicker sauce, mix 1 tablespoon cornstarch with 1 tablespoon water to make a slurry and stir it in for the last 5 minutes of cooking.
4-Serve your Crock Pot Smothered Pork Chops over rice, mashed potatoes, or noodles for a complete meal. This method works well with dietary swaps, like using plant-based options for a vegan version. Always adjust based on your needs to keep things simple and effective.
