Saturday Share Recipe - Baked Pork Chops and Rice

Saturday, May 3, 2025 13:57

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.

Recently I came across my Mom’s recipe for Baked Pork Chops and Rice.

I remember this main dish because it was the first time my Mom used Cream of Mushroom Soup, a shortcut for her since she made everything from scratch.

The dish was a big hit tastewise for the family and time-saving for her. It’s easy to put together and serves 6 hungry people.

In today’s world when it seems pork is less expensive than beef—at least that’s how it is in Texas—it may offer savings on a family’s food budget.

BAKED PORK CHOPS AND RICE

Ingredients

Seasoning Mix for 6 Chops

3 teaspoons salt

1-2 teaspoons ground black pepper, to your taste

2 teaspoons garlic powder

2 teapoons celery seeds

2 teaspoons Tony Chacere’s No Salt Creole Seasoning

6 pork chops

1 tablespoons olive oil

1 tablespoon of butter

1 can cream of mushroom soup

1 large onion, chopped

1 1/2 cup rice, uncooked

3 cups water

Large skillet or Dutch oven with a tight-fitting lid

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 350°F (176°C). Mix the soup and water together in a large measuring cup or bowl. Blend well.

2. Wash the chops. I encourage you to always wash meat you purchase. Many supermarket meat departments no longer properly clean cut meats which is why you can find bone residue on chops, steaks, and roasts.

3. Pat the chops dry.

4. Sprinkle the seasoning mix on both sides of the chops.

5. Heat the olive oil and butter in a large skillet.

6. Add the chops to the heated pan and brown on each side. Remove for now.

7. Add the onion to the pan and saute until light brown. Remove for now.

8. Add the rice and saute until light brown.

9. Return the onion to the pan and stir with the rice. Add the chops back in the pan and arrange evenly over the rice and onion.

10. Pour the soup mixture over everything, cover the pan with the lid, and place in pre-heated oven. Bake 40-45 minutes or until rice is done.

All you need is something green to complete this meal.
