Smothered Pork Chops in the Oven
Description
Boneless pork chops are baked smothered in a tasty sauce of sour cream, canned mushroom soup, and garlic, and the extra sauce doubles as a gravy for mashed potatoes!
Ingredients
•
5 tablespoons butter
•
1 tablespoon minced garlic
•
5 boneless pork chops
•
1 (16 ounce) container sour cream
•
2 (10 3/4 ounce) cans condensed cream of mushroom soup
Directions
1
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
2
Melt butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat until it begins to bubble, being careful not to burn. Stir in minced garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add pork chops and cook until browned, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer chops to a large baking dish, leaving pan drippings in the skillet.
3
Bake chops in the preheated oven for 20 minutes.
4
Meanwhile, add sour cream to the skillet and whisk together with the pan drippings until smooth. Add canned soup and whisk until incorporated.
5
Remove chops from the oven and pour sour cream-soup mixture over top. Return to the oven and bake until chops are no longer pink in the center, about 25 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).

Remove from the oven and let sit for 5 minutes before serving.
