Mushroom Soup Baked Pork Chops and Rice

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350 °F.

Step 2

Whisk together the rice, soup, water and soup mix until the lumps in the soup are smoothed out and mixed in. To get three cans of the water, simply fill up the empty mushroom soup cans and use to measure. It also helps clean out the extra soup!

Step 3

Pour into a large deep large lidded casserole dish or Dutch oven like I used. This recipe is too big for a 9x13 usually, with those thick chops.

Step 4

Place your frozen pork chops on top of the rice and gently immerse the chops into the soup and cover it completely so that the pork chops don't dry out.

Step 5

Cover with foil or a lid and cook for 1 1/2 hours OR until the rice is tender and the pork has reached a temperature of 145°F .

Step 6

Remove from the oven and sprinkle the crackers, then the cheese on top. Return to the oven and broil for 2-3 minutes until the crackers are browned and the cheese has melted.

Step 7

Remove and serve.
