Baked Pork Chops and Rice

Growing up, this was a staple in my home. This is a great recipe because the pork and rice cook in the same dish. The rice is flavorful and the pork chops come out nice and tender.

Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons butter
• 1 onion, diced
• 1 ½ cups white rice
• 1 (14 ounce) can beef consomme
• 10 fluid ounces water
• 1 pinch seasoned salt, or to taste
• 6 thin bone-in pork chops

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

Step 2

Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat; cook and stir onion until golden brown, 15 to 20 minutes. Transfer onion to a plate.

Step 3

Sprinkle seasoned salt over all sides of each pork chop. Place pork chops in the same large skillet and cook until browned, 1 to 2 minutes per side.

Step 4

Mix beef consomme and water together in a 9x13-inch baking dish. Pour rice into the broth mixture; add caramelized onion. Gently arrange pork chops over rice in a single layer. Cover baking dish with aluminum foil.

Step 5

Bake in the preheated oven until pork is cooked through, 45 to 60 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).
