Pork Chop Casserole
Description
This Pork Chop Casserole places seasoned boneless pork chops in a baking dish covered with a creamy mixture of mushroom soup, sour cream, and herbs including thyme, parsley, and garlic powder. The sauce adds moisture and umami to the pork, while the seasoning blends provide herby undertones. An initial layer of crispy fried onions is incorporated into the sauce mixture, with additional onions sprinkled on top to create a crunchy crust after baking.
Baking covered at 350°F for about one hour allows the pork chops to cook through gently in the creamy sauce, which thickens slightly while retaining moisture. Removing the foil near the end crisps the onion topping. This dish balances tender meat with creamy texture and a browned onion topping combining soft and crispy elements.
Pork Chop Casserole is suited as a hearty main dish served with simple sides. The creamy sauce and herbs enrich the pork without overpowering its flavor. The recipe calls for boneless chops of medium thickness for even cooking and ideal tenderness.
Ingredients
- 6 pork chops medium thickness, boneless
- 10 ounces cream of mushroom soup
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1 teaspoon thyme
- 1 tablespoon parsley
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon salt

Instructions

- Season the pork chops on both sides with salt and pepper, then place in an even layer in a glass baking dish.
- In a medium mixing bowl, combine the cream of mushroom soup, sour cream, thyme, parsley, garlic powder, and salt. Add 1 cup of the fried onions, reserving the remaining onions for topping the casserole.
- Spread the creamy onion mixture over top of the pork chops and then sprinkle the remaining fried onions over the top.
- Cover the pan with foil and bake for 1 hour at 350F degrees. Remove the foil for the last 5 minutes of baking.
