French onion smothered boneless porkchops

It's a dreary, overcast day outside and I just want to curl up in bed and sleep all day. I force myself to be productive even though it's hard.

I tried to use what I had at home, but realized I had to go out anyway so I picked up a couple items I needed for this recipe.

It is super easy, it was done in however long it takes to brown both sides of boneless pork chops. Maybe 10 min. Thrown in the Crock-Pot on high for 4 hours. Even put in at 2pm. Dinner will be done by 6pm tonight. That's a win in my book.

Ingredients:

6-8 boneless pork chops (I had 7)
1 onion, sliced thinly, halved
1 can Campbell's chicken with herbs soup
1 can Campbell's french onion soup
Season of choice. I coated both sides of my pork chops with Ms. Dash

2tbsp butter and olive oil for browning pork chops

Directions:
Brown pork chops in olive oil and butter.

Place half the sliced onions on bottom of Crock-Pot

Place first half of pork chops on top of onions then layer rest of onions on pork chops. Top with remaining pork chops.




Mix the two cans of soup together and


pour on top of layers of onion and pork chops. Set on high 4 hours. Enjoy!

Slow Cooker Smothered Pork Chops #2

Ok, Ok,... OK... I know I have another pork chop recipe for the crock pot. BUT.... this one is easy and just as yummy. Again, I'm using what I have in the house, and not necessarily following any directions or recipes. My brain is crazy that way. But I love it! So here's to another YUMMY dish my brain made up all by it's self! Now you know, it's good when my kids eat it all up, even the sauce! And yes, they did, even my husband said it was WAY YUMMY! Another GREAT compliment! So hold on to your hats ladies and Gents! It's so easy and delicious... you'll want it at least one night a week... I know I do :)

Ingredients

8 boneless pork chops
1 can progresso french onion soup
1 can cream of mushroom soup
1 stick of butter - unsalted
6 oz of cream cheese
2 tbsp corn starch mixed with cold water
1 pkg dry onion soup

Directions:

In a 4 Qt slow cooker, add the french onion soup, the cream of mushroom soup, the stick of butter and the pork chops. After that cooks on low all day... about 30 minutes before serving, add the cream cheese, dry onion soup mix and corn starch mixture... stir and let the cream cheese dissolve... if it doesn't dissolve take out the pork chops, and use your immersible blender and blend til smooth. Should thicken a little.

Then spoon over the pork chops and serve with rice or orzo.

DIG IN!


This was so yummy! We ate it all up, so fast that I couldn't get pictures... I thought about taking pictures when I was half way done and then thought you wouldn't want to see it half demolished and so I saved you from my partially eaten food. If you make it send me your picture... It's so YUMMY!

Slow cooker Smothered Pork Chops - Quick




This morning on our menu we have smothered pork chops. I had bought at reduced price, a package of bone-in pork chops, and stuck them in the freezer for a later date. I thawed them in the fridge, and went to find my Campbells french onion soup. I was only able to find one can, I then checked my food storage where I found a Progresso French Onion Soup. It is much larger than the french onion soup by Campbell's, but I used it anyways.The first thing I did was cut out the bones. This is an easy step, but not needed if you don't want to. I do it because my husband doesn't like to cut around the bone when he is trying to eat. It is definitely cheaper to buy bone-in and then remove the bones when you get home either before you freeze or after. Here is how quick this came together after removing the bones.

Ingredients:
2 lbs bone-in pork chops (approx 8 pork chops)
1 can Campbell's French Onion Soup
1 can Progresso French Onion Soup
1 can Cream of chicken, mushroom or what ever soup (I used a can of Cream of Chicken with Herbs)
1-2 tbsp olive oil
sea salt and pepper for taste


In the 6 quart crock pot, I added the soups and mixed well.










Next I removed the bones from the pork chops and seasoned with sea salt and pepper.














Then I heated the olive oil in a small skillet and lightly browned/seared, the pork chops.













Once they were browned on both sides, I placed them in the crock pot with the soup mixture. and set on low for 8 hours.












My family loves this recipe. They are so tasty and quick and easy. It happens really quick because over high heat in the hot oil, they brown quickly, and then your done. You can serve this with noodles, rice, potatoes, or what ever starch you want. You could even top with cheese and brown in the oven to add further flavor and yumminess.
