Ingredients

• 4 pieces bone-in pork chops
• 4 cups frozen hash browns
• 1 can (10.5 oz) cream of mushroom soup
• 1 cup sour cream
• 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
• 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 1 medium yellow onion, finely chopped
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 stalks green onions, sliced (optional for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add olive oil.

Step 3

Season the pork chops with half the salt, pepper, and paprika. Sear the pork chops in the skillet for 3 minutes on each side until browned but not fully cooked. Remove from skillet and set aside.

Step 4

In the same skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic, cooking until softened, about 3-4 minutes.

Step 5

In a large mixing bowl, combine the hash browns, cream of mushroom soup, sour cream, 1 1/2 cups of the shredded cheddar cheese, cooked onions and garlic, and the remaining salt, pepper, and paprika. Mix until well combined.

Step 6

Spread the hash brown mixture evenly into a greased 9x13-inch baking dish.

Step 7

Place the seared pork chops on top of the hash brown mixture.

Step 8

Cover the dish tightly with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes.

Step 9

Remove the foil and sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup of shredded cheddar cheese over the top.

Step 10

Return to the oven and bake, uncovered, for an additional 15 minutes or until the pork chops are fully cooked (internal temperature reaches 145°F) and the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Step 11

Let the dish rest for 5 minutes. Garnish with sliced green onions if desired before serving.
