Ingredients
- 1 cup Long Grain White Rice - un-cooked
- 1½ cup Whole Milk
- 10.5 ounce Cream of Celery Condensed Soup undiluted
- 4 Boneless Pork Chops I used chops about an inch thick
- ½ teaspoon Kosher Salt
- ½ teaspoon Black Pepper
- ½ teaspoon Garlic Powder
- ½ teaspoon Onion Powder
- ½ teaspoon Paprika
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (177°C)
- In a mixing bowl; combine the rice, milk, and cream of celery soup using a whisk.
- Lightly spray a rectangle baking dish (13x9 or similar) with cooking spray.
- Transfer the rice mixture into the prepared baking dish.
- In a small bowl, combine the seasonings together, then season both sides of the pork chops well. This should be enough seasoning mixture for four pork chops.
- Optional, but recommended, sear the seasoned pork chops for a minute or so on both sides on a hot griddle or in a hot large skillet. They aren't cooking through, just searing for color and added flavor.
- Place the pork chops on top of the rice mixture then cover the baking dish with aluminum foil.
- Place into the preheated oven and bake for 1 hour, or until done.
