Ingredients
  

Ingredients
  • 4 boneless pork chops (about 1 inch thick)
  • 4 large potatoes, thinly sliced
  • 1 large onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 cup cream of mushroom soup
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1/4 cup chicken broth
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley for garnish

Method
 

Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). While the oven heats, thinly slice your potatoes and onion. Pat the pork chops dry with paper towels and season both sides with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika.
  2. Heat olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the pork chops for 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown. Remove from skillet and set aside.
  3. In the same skillet, layer the sliced potatoes and onions. Mix the cream of mushroom soup, sour cream, chicken broth, and thyme together, then pour over the potatoes. Return the pork chops to the skillet, nestling them into the potato mixture.
  4. Sprinkle the shredded cheese over everything. Cover the skillet with foil and bake for 30 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for another 15-20 minutes until the potatoes are tender and the top is golden brown.
  5. Let the casserole rest for 5 minutes before serving. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve hot.

Notes

Slice potatoes evenly using mandolin or sharp knife for uniform cooking. Let pork chops sit at room temperature for 15 minutes before cooking for more even searing. Can customize with different cheese varieties like Monterey Jack or Gruyère.
