This is called “Pork Chop Supreme” and my hubby always feels like a king eating it

I have pleasant memories of my family eating together one chilly evening when I was still young. A plate of Pork Chop Supreme made its way to the table; looking back, it seems like the evening was planned around this delicious meal. The aroma was rich and flavorful—the onions were creamy, and the pork became incredibly tender through searing before finishing with added onion soup for flavor enhancement. We paired it with broccoli, pouring any excess sauce over already cooked rice, and served it alongside mashed sweet potatoes. All my grandmother’s tricks for creating delicious meals on busy nights converged into this simple recipe, which soon became viral among my siblings, inviting its preparation for almost every family celebration or visit.

This dish strikes an excellent compromise between lazy self-indulgence and comfort food. You can never go wrong with it if you are a fan of simple yet elegant dishes. It’s perfect for get-togethers or when you want to give your family something special to eat. What I find most interesting about this recipe is how easy it is to prepare, using less time than what my grandmother used back in the day.

Ingredients

6 boneless pork chops
Note: You can also use bone-in, but this will change the cooking time.

4 potatoes, peeled and sliced

1 can of cream of onion soup

1/4 cup of mashed onion mix

1/4 cup milk

2 tbsp olive oil

Salt to taste

This dish will keep the interest going irrespective of where you are serving it. As long as one person eats their plate, there’s an instant response of “wow!” That is how good it tastes—absolutely amazing. The irresistible aroma always attracted me toward the kitchen, breaking my heart if I couldn’t have a taste.

Instructions

1. Preheat Your Oven

Preheat the Oven: Before you cook the Pork Chop Supreme, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). This ensures that the oven’s temperature is optimal when baking the dish.

Prepare the Baking Dish: Lightly grease a 9×13 inch baking dish with cooking spray or a bit of olive oil to ensure that the meat does not stick to the dish, making it easier to clean after it’s cooked.

2. Prepare and Sear the Pork Chops

Season the Pork Chops: Season each pork chop generously with salt and black pepper to enhance the flavor during cooking.

Sear the Pork Chops: In a skillet over medium-high heat, sear the pork chops on both sides until they are browned. This step locks in the juices and adds a rich flavor.

3. Prepare the Potato Layer

Peel and Slice the Potatoes: Peel and thinly slice the potatoes to ensure they cook evenly.

Arrange in Baking Dish: Arrange the sliced potatoes in an even layer at the bottom of the prepared baking dish.

4. Assemble the Dish

Place Pork Chops: Place the seared pork chops on top of the arranged potato slices. This allows all the pork juices to seep into the potatoes, making them very tasty.

Prepare the Sauce: In a bowl, combine the cream of onion soup, mashed onion mix, and milk. Mix well to create a creamy sauce.

Pour the Sauce: Pour the sauce over the pork chops and potatoes, ensuring even coverage.

5. Bake

Cover and Cook: Cover the dish with aluminum foil and place it in the preheated oven. Cook for 60 minutes.

Brown the Top: Right before serving, remove the foil and allow it to bake for an additional 10-15 minutes to achieve a slightly browned top, which adds a nice texture and color to the pork chops and potatoes.

6. Rest and Serve

Let It Rest: Remove the dish from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes. This allows the juices to distribute well.

Serve: Pork Chop Supreme goes well with mashed potatoes, scalloped potatoes, steamed veggies, or salad greens because each has complementary flavors that make them taste delicious together.

Variations & Tips

Meat Alternatives: If you prefer, opt for bone-in pork chops or chicken breasts as a substitute. Adjust the cooking time accordingly.

Herbs: Herbs like thyme and rosemary work well with its savory nature. Adding these herbs will bring exciting accents to the dish.

Healthier Options: To enhance its flavor while keeping it healthy, you may use low-fat milk or light cream instead of regular cream.

Conclusion

Pork Chop Supreme is a tasty dish that combines the delicious taste of tender pork with creamy onions for an unforgettable experience during family dinners and celebrations. This recipe is very easy to prepare and does not require any special ingredients; moreover, the taste is simply outstanding.
