Crock Pot Smothered Pork Chops
These Crock Pot Smothered Pork Chops are tender, juicy, and smothered in a rich, flavorful gravy. Perfect for an easy, comforting meal, they pair beautifully with mashed potatoes or buttered noodles.
INGREDIENTS:
4 bone-in pork chops
1 oz onion soup mix packet
2 cups chicken broth low sodium
10.5 oz cream of chicken soup low sodium
1 oz dry pork gravy mix packet
1 tsp garlic powder
3 tbsp cornstarch for thickening
3 tbsp cold water for slurry
DIRECTIONS:
In a 5-6 quart slow cooker, whisk together onion soup mix, chicken broth, cream of chicken soup, and pork gravy mix. Whisk until smooth and lump-free.
Season both sides of the pork chops with garlic powder. Use bone-in pork chops for the best flavor and tenderness.
Place the seasoned pork chops into the slow cooker. Ensure they are evenly coated in the gravy mixture for uniform flavor absorption.
Cover the slow cooker and cook on LOW for 4-6 hours, or until the pork chops are tender and cooked through.
Whisk together cornstarch and cold water in a small bowl to create a slurry. About 30 minutes before serving, stir the slurry into the slow cooker. Switch to HIGH and cook until the gravy thickens to your desired consistency.
Serve the pork chops hot, generously topped with thickened gravy. Pair with mashed potatoes, buttered noodles, or steamed vegetables for a comforting meal.
