Ingredients

• 4 pieces bone-in pork chops
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 1 medium yellow onion, sliced
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 10.5 ounces cream of mushroom soup
• 1 cup chicken broth
• 0.5 cup sour cream
• 0.5 teaspoon paprika
• 2 large russet potatoes, thinly sliced
• 2 medium carrots, thinly sliced
• 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9x13-inch casserole dish and set aside.

Step 2

Season the pork chops on both sides with salt and black pepper.

Step 3

In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Sear the pork chops for 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown. Remove the pork chops and set aside.

Step 4

In the same skillet, add the sliced onion and sauté for 3-4 minutes until softened. Add the minced garlic and sauté for an additional 1 minute.

Step 5

In a mixing bowl, combine the cream of mushroom soup, chicken broth, sour cream, and paprika. Stir until well mixed.

Step 6

Layer the thinly sliced potatoes and carrots in the bottom of the prepared casserole dish. Pour half of the soup mixture over the vegetables and spread evenly.

Step 7

Place the seared pork chops on top of the vegetables. Pour the remaining soup mixture over the pork chops.

Step 8

Cover the casserole dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 45 minutes.

Step 9

Remove the foil and sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese on top. Return the dish to the oven and bake uncovered for an additional 15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Step 10

Garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving.
