Sauteed pork chops are baked over a comfy nest of hashbrown potatoes and Cheddar cheese in a sour cream sauce, with some crunchy onion rings thrown in to keep things interesting. Add some green beans and you have a warm and homey one-dish meal.
INGREDIENTS (for 6 servings):
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 6 pork chops
- 1 (10.75 ounce) can condensed cream of celery soup
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- salt and pepper to taste
- 1 (20 ounce) package frozen hash brown potatoes, thawed
- 1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
- 1 1/2 cups French-fried onions, divided
PREPARATION:
Heat oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. Add pork chops and saute until browned. Remove from skillet and drain on paper toweling.
Meanwhile, preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
In a medium bowl mix together soup, milk, sour cream and salt and pepper to taste. Stir in potatoes, 1/2 cup cheese and 1/2 cup onions. Mix together and spread mixture in the bottom of a 9x13 inch baking dish. Arrange pork chops over potato mixture.
Cover dish and bake in the preheated oven for about 40 minutes, or until internal temperature of pork has reached 160 degrees F (70 degrees C). Remove cover; top with remaining cheese and onions and bake uncovered for 5 more minutes.
