Pork Chops with Mushroom Sauce


It has been a cold, snowy day today. I wanted a hearty meal to fix for the kids and myself. This recipe was everything I hoped it would be.

4 Boneless pork chops
2 TBS olive oil
1/4 tsp garlic powder
1/4 tsp ground thyme
Salt and black pepper
3/4 c milk
1 can Cream of Mushroom Soup
Cavender's Greek Seasoning http://www.greekseasoning.com/
Cooked rice
  • Lightly season the pork chops with Cavender's (Salt-free would be good, too).
  • Brown the seasoned pork chops in the olive oil over medium high heat.
  • While the pork chops are browning, mix the dry ingredients (garlic powder, thyme, salt and pepper) separately.
  • Mix the milk and the Cream of Mushroom Soup.
  • Add the dry seasoning to the mushroom soup mixture and mix thoroughly.
  • Lower the temperature of the pork chops and add the Cream of Mushroom soup mixture.
  • Simmer for 15 minutes or until done.
  • Serve hot over cooked rice.
Maddie loved it and asked for more.
Graham didn't think twice about NOT trying it.

On a side note about Cavenders Greek Seasoning. I noticed one day that Cavender's is made in Harrison, Arkansas. My Dad's side of the family lived in this area of the Ozarks for many years. I asked Grandpa if he knew of any Cavenders living in Harrison. "Well, they used to be our neighbors," was the reply. Small world...
