Slow Cooker Pork Chops

I am trying to clean out my freezer again so tonight we did some slow cooking of some pork chops! 

Super easy recipe. Almost literary set it and forget it. I didn't brown my pork chops before I put them in. Seems unnecessary when it's just me. 

One cautionary comment though, don't salt anything until you taste it later. The au jus gravy mix is pretty salty. I sure wish I could find one that's low sodium...well, one that I like. 

Slow Cooker Pork Chops

Recipe from Tornadoughalli.com

Serves 4

• 2 pounds boneless pork loin chops about 8 chops
• ½ teaspoon kosher salt
• ½ teaspoon black pepper
• ½ teaspoon garlic powder
• ½ teaspoon onion powder
• ½ cup all-purpose flour
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 10.5 ounce can cream of chicken soup
• 1 ounce packet au jus gravy
• 1 ½ cups chicken stock
• Fresh chopped parsley optional

Season the pork chops on both sides with the salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Place the flour onto a plate or shallow bowl, set aside.

Place a large skillet over medium heat, once hot add the oil.

One by one, place the pork chops into the flour and shake off any excess.

Place the pork chops into the pan, not touching, you will need to do this in batches. Sear on both sides until golden brown, 3 minutes per side. You are not cooking them all the way through, just browning.

Place the browned pork chops into the bottom of an 8-quart slow cooker.

In a small bowl, whisk together the cream of chicken soup, au jus packet, and chicken stock until smooth. Pour over the pork chops.

Cook for 3-4 hours on high or 6-7 hours on low until tender.

Serve over mashed potatoes, rice, or egg noodles with the gravy. Garnish with parsley, optional.
