Why This Pork Chop Recipe Works

Searing the pork chops first adds flavor, while canned mushroom gravy or mushroom soup creates a creamy sauce without needing a complicated homemade gravy.

Chicken broth helps loosen the gravy and keeps the pork chops moist as they cook.

Helpful Cooking Tips

• Pat the pork chops dry. This helps them sear better.
• Use low-sodium broth. This helps control the salt level.
• Do not overcook. Pork can dry out if cooked too long.
• Use bone-in or boneless. Both work for this recipe.
• Spoon gravy over the top. This keeps every bite rich and flavorful.
