Pork Chops on Rice
Pork Chops on Rice

 

Simple and delicious.  Rice is like risotto with no work at all! Light on calories too.
This is a fast and almost work-free dinner.  It’s actually a total meal in itself since there’s plenty of veggies right in the rice!!!  Add more veggies too if you want!  I used up some leftover canned carrots, but most anything would work here.

Ingredients

  • 4 boneless loin pork chops about 3/4-inch thick

  • 2 1/4 cups water
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 3 ribs celery sliced

  • 1/8 tsp pepper
  • 1/8 tsp garlic powder

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Spray a 13 x 9-inch pan with non-stick spray.
  • In a large bowl, mix together the rice, soup, water, 2 tbs olive oil, celery and carrots. Pour in prepared baking dish.
  • Mix the salt, pepper, garlic powder and thyme in a small cup.
  • Place pork chops on top of rice mixture in pan. Baste pork chops with the 2 tsp olive oil. Sprinkle with salt mixture.

    Just wondering if this dish should be covered with foil in order for the rice to cook properly. Can't wait to try it!

    Vicki, that's a SUPER idea, especially if you are using brown rice. Go for it and let me know how it turns out. With regular rice it should be no problem to cook, but this would result in fluffier rice even with that.

    This looks great! My mom used to make something really similar when I was young.

    Can bone in pork chops be used instead of boneless?

  9. Judith Hanneman says

    September 27, 2014 at 7:05 pm

    You bet Kitchen Monkey! I just had a lot of boneless because of a super sale. It'd probably be way better with bone-in chops too.

    Can this casserole be prepared the night before and cooked the nxt night for dinner? Also Can u use frozen pork chops in dish.

    Thanks for ur wonderful recipes. I am trying the Orange Beef Pepper recipe next. I so enjoy receiving your recipes

    Ive never tried prepping the night before Kitdhen Monkey, but if you do, you might find it cooks faster or you might have to add more water before and/or during baking–the rice might absorb quite a bit when it sits a while.

    With the long cook time of brown rice, I'd say you'd have no problems starting with frozen chops.
