Ingredients

• 4 pieces boneless pork chops
• 8 ounces white or cremini mushrooms
• 10.5 ounces cream of mushroom soup
• 0.5 cups chicken broth
• 1 medium onion
• 2 cloves garlic cloves
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 0.5 teaspoons dried thyme
• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 tablespoon cornstarch
• 2 tablespoons water
• 1 tablespoon fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Season both sides of the pork chops with paprika, salt, and black pepper.

Step 2

Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, sear the pork chops for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown. Remove and set aside.

Step 3

Clean and slice the mushrooms. Peel and thinly slice the onion. Mince the garlic cloves.

Step 4

In the same skillet, sauté the onions, garlic, and mushrooms for 3-4 minutes until softened and fragrant. Remove from heat.

Step 5

In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the cream of mushroom soup and chicken broth until smooth.

Step 6

Place the seared pork chops in the bottom of the crock pot. Top with the sautéed mushroom mixture.

Step 7

Sprinkle the dried thyme over the mixture and pour the soup mixture over the top, ensuring the pork chops are well-coated in the sauce.

Step 8

Cover and cook on low for 6 hours or until the pork chops are tender and cooked through.

Step 9

To thicken the sauce, mix the cornstarch and water in a small bowl to create a slurry. Stir the slurry into the crock pot during the last 15 minutes of cooking.

Step 10

Serve the pork chops topped with the creamy mushroom sauce. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley if desired.
