When it comes to comfort food, few dishes can rival the rich, hearty flavor of Creamy Pork Chops and Potatoes. Tender pork chops, soft layers of potatoes, and a smooth, savory sauce come together in this casserole-style meal that feels like a hug on a plate. It’s the perfect choice for family dinners, cozy gatherings, or any time you want a dish that looks impressive but is surprisingly simple to make.
Ingredients:
| Ingredient | Quantity |
|---|---|
| Pork loin chops | 6-8 (boneless or bone-in) |
| Russet potatoes | 6, peeled and sliced |
| Condensed cream of mushroom soup | 2 cans (10 ounces each) |
| Evaporated milk | 1 can (12 ounces) |
| Water | ¾ cup |
| Onion soup base (or Lipton onion soup packet) | 3 tablespoons |
| Salt and pepper | To taste |
| Optional: Fried onions | As desired |
Instructions:
Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 325°F to get things ready.
Mix the Creamy Sauce: In a large bowl, combine the cream of mushroom soup, evaporated milk, water, onion soup base, salt, and pepper. Stir until smooth.
Layer the Potatoes: Grease a casserole dish and arrange the sliced potatoes evenly along the bottom.
Place the Pork Chops: Lay the pork chops over the potato layer, setting the stage for all that creamy flavor.
Pour the Creamy Mixture: Gently pour the prepared sauce over the top. If you’d like extra crunch, sprinkle fried onions before baking.
Bake to Perfection: Cover the dish with foil and bake for 2 to 2 ½ hours. Remove the foil for the last 30 minutes so the top can turn beautifully golden brown.
Serve and Savor: Allow it to cool just slightly before serving. Each bite delivers tender pork, creamy potatoes, and a flavor combination that feels like pure comfort.
