Key Ingredients in  Baked Pork Chop

Pork Chops with No Bones — To begin, dry the chops with a paper towel. The pork chops will bake crispier on the outside while staying juicy on the inside after being dried.

After the pork chops have dried, season them with a few simple spices before arranging them into this meal. The chops will soak up as much flavor as possible because they cook in the same pan as the other ingredients!

Cream of Mushroom Soup – The richness of this warming pork chops and rice meal comes from this can of condensed soup.

Although cream of mushroom soup is thicker than other soups, it may be purchased in the soup section of most supermarkets. If cream of mushroom soup is unavailable, substitute an extra can of cream of chicken soup.

Long Grain White Rice — In this meal, this long and narrow grain bakes up beautifully! Both basmati and jasmine rice are long-grain white rices that can be used in this recipe.

Long grain is preferred since it fluffs up while maintaining its shape after cooking. Brown rice is not recommended because it takes significantly longer to cook than white rice.

Chef’s Advice

  • Make a uniform layer of rice mixture in the bottom of the casserole dish. If all of the rice is sitting in one place, it will clump together and/or bake unevenly when cooked. As a result, by making sure the rice layer is even before adding the pork chops, everything will cook evenly!
  • Don’t be concerned if the casserole remains soupy after baking. Simply set the meal on the counter for 10-15 minutes before serving to allow the rice to absorb any remaining liquid. This also gives the chops time to rest and absorb their juices, enhancing the flavor of the dish!
  • When pork chops achieve an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit, they’re done. If you’re unsure if yours are fully done, simply inspect them and return them to the oven for another 10-15 minutes. If you’re worried about the pork overcooking, simply take it from the dish and return it to the oven to finish cooking the rice. After the rice is finished, return the chops to the top and serve!

Notes

  • Pork Chops Without Bones: If you like, bone-in pork can be used in this recipe. However, because bone-in pork chops are often larger than boneless pork chops, I’d recommend using only 6 of them.
