An easy casserole recipe with fork-tender pork chops and savory perfectly seasoned rice made with French onion soup.
This is a dish my mom has been making for over twenty years and I have a feeling it was something she actually discovered on the side of a soup can once and decided to try it. It’s ridiculously easy and yields the moistest, fork-tender pork chops you will ever eat. Also? This is made with rice, which, as I've said before, is in my blood.
I should probably call this something like ‘Pork Chop & Rice Bake’ since that might describe it better but Mom’s always called it a casserole so that’s what we’re going to call it. If you don’t agree, I’ll let you take that up with Carol.
Mom’s recipe calls for breading the chops in flour which I don’t do. I find that the breading gets soft and soggy while the casserole cooks so I really don’t see the point in it but feel free to dredge your chops in flour before you brown them.
