Description

This pork chops and dirty rice recipe is seasoned with a simple packet of dry onion soup mix, which coats everything with a rich and wonderful flavor.

Ingredients

2 tablespoons cooking oil
4 (6 ounce) pork chops
3 cups water
1 (1 ounce) package dry onion soup mix
1 cup uncooked white rice

Directions

1 Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
2 Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat; brown pork on both sides. Remove from the skillet, leaving drippings behind. Add water and onion soup mix. Bring to a boil on high heat, stirring until well combined.
3 Spread rice evenly on the bottom of a 2-quart casserole dish. Lay pork atop rice. Pour soup mixture evenly over pork and rice. Cover with aluminum foil.
4 Place in the preheated oven and bake 45 minutes. Remove the foil and continue to bake until pork is no longer pink in the center, about 15 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).
