Kitten’s Baked Mushroom Soup Pork Chops

6 center-cut pork chops (about 3/4-inch thick)

fresh ground black pepper

oil, for browning the pork chops

2 (10 3/4 ounce) cans condensed golden mushroom soup, undiluted

1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese

1/4 cup light cream (optional, use for a thinner sauce)

1 medium onion, chopped

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 (10 ounce) can sliced mushrooms (or use fresh sauteed in butter before using in this recipe)

1 cup grated cheddar cheese (optional or to taste)

INSTRUCTIONS:—————————————————–

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

Butter a 13 x 9-inch baking dish.

Heat oil in a skillet over medium-high heat (use enough oil to coat the bottom of your skillet).

Season the pork chops with black pepper and brown on both sides in hot oil (about 3 minutes per side).

Place the browned pork chops in the baking dish in one layer.

In a bowl combine all remaining ingredients except the cheddar cheese, until well blended, then pour over the chops (lifting and turning the chops to coat with the sauce).

Cover and bake for about 45 minutes (cooking time will vary depending on the thickness of your pork chops).

Uncover and bake for another 15 minutes.

At the end of cooking sprinkle with grated cheddar cheese and return to oven for a few minutes to melt the cheese (the cheddar cheese is only optional).
