COUNTRY PORK CHOP AND RICE BAKE



Country Pork Chop and Rice Bake image

A simple Country Pork Chop and Rice Bake is an easy dinner recipe with just 10 minutes of prep.

Provided by Blair Lonergan

Categories     Dinner

Time 1h10m

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 (10.5 oz) can condensed cream of mushroom soup, NOT diluted
2 cups beef broth
1 cup uncooked long grain white rice
¼ teaspoon garlic powder
¼ teaspoon dried chives
¼ teaspoon onion powder
4 thick cut pork chops ((bone-in or boneless is fine))
1 (1 ounce) packet Lipton Onion Soup & Dip Mix (or other seasoning of choice, see notes below)
Optional garnish: chopped fresh parsley or basil

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Spray a 9 x 13-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
  • Whisk together the soup, broth, rice, garlic powder, dried chives, and onion powder. Transfer to the prepared dish.
  • Pat the pork chops dry; place on top of the rice. Sprinkle onion soup mix over the pork chops, to taste. If you don't like a strong onion flavor or if you don't want the chops too salty, use just a portion of the seasoning (not the whole packet).
  • Cover dish with foil and bake for 30 minutes. Check the pork chops at this point. If they are done (and have reached an internal temperature of 145°F), remove them from the dish, cover with foil, and set aside to rest. Give the rice a stir. The rice will not be tender yet, so cover the dish again and return to the oven for about 25-30 more minutes, or just until rice is tender and most of the liquid is absorbed. Fluff the rice with a fork and serve with the pork chops. Garnish with herbs, if desired.

Pork Chops and Rice with Creamy Mushroom Sauce image

This Pork Chops and Rice skillet is smothered in a creamy mushroom sauce for an easy dinner recipe that's ready in about 30 minutes!

Provided by Blair Lonergan

Categories     Dinner

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 13

4 thick-cut boneless pork chops ((about 2 lbs. total))
1 tablespoon butter
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
¾ cup water
½ cup diced celery
2 tablespoons dry onion soup mix ((half of a 1-oz packet))
¼ teaspoon garlic powder
4 ounce can mushrooms, drained
¼ cup all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon dried parsley
2/3 cup whole milk or half-and-half
Cooked rice, for serving
Optional garnish: chopped fresh parsley

Steps:

  • Pat pork chops dry with a paper towel. Season liberally with salt and pepper on all sides.
  • Heat butter and oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Brown pork chops on both sides (about 2-3 minutes per side). Remove pork chops from the skillet; drain fat off the pan, but leave browned bits in the bottom (you don't need to wipe it clean).
  • Add water, celery, onion soup mix, and garlic powder; stir to combine, scraping up the browned bits from the bottom of the pan to add flavor to the sauce. Return pork chops to the skillet; cover, and cook over low heat for about 15-20 minutes (or until the pork chops reach an internal temperature of 145 degrees F). Remove chops from the skillet and set aside on a plate.
  • In a separate bowl, toss mushrooms with flour.
  • Add mushrooms and flour, parsley, and milk to the skillet. Whisk and cook over low heat, just until sauce thickens (about 2 minutes). Return pork chops to the skillet and heat just until warmed through. Spoon sauce over chops and serve with cooked rice. Garnish with fresh parsley, if desired.

DIRTY RICE



Dirty Rice image

This classic Cajun dish pays homage to the Louisiana holy trinity (onions, bell peppers and celery). The finely chopped proteins give the rice its signature "dirty" look. Traditionally, dirty rice includes chicken liver -- you can omit it, but don't fear the liver! It adds another layer of texture and depth of flavor.

Categories     main-dish

Time 50m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

1 tablespoon olive oil
8 ounces hot sage pork sausage, casing removed
8 ounces ground beef
6 ounces chicken livers, finely chopped (optional)
1 medium onion, diced
1 green bell pepper, diced
2 large celery ribs, diced
3 large garlic cloves, minced
1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves, chopped
2 bay leaves
1 1/2 cups long-grain white rice, rinsed and drained
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 1/2 cups beef broth
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
3 scallions, sliced

Steps:

  • Heat the olive oil in a Dutch oven or large heavy-bottomed pot over medium-high heat. Add the sausage, ground beef and chicken livers and cook, breaking the meat into small bits with a wooden spoon, until no longer pink, 3 to 4 minutes. Transfer to a medium heatproof bowl with a slotted spoon.
  • Remove and discard all but 2 tablespoons of the fat from the Dutch oven. Add the onion, bell pepper and celery and cook down, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables have softened, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the garlic, thyme and bay leaves and cook, stirring frequently, until fragrant, about 1 minute. Stir in the rice, oregano, smoked paprika, cayenne, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper and cook about 30 seconds. Stir the cooked meat back in, then add the beef broth and Worcestershire sauce. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat to a low simmer and cover. Cook until the rice is tender and has absorbed the liquid, about 18 minutes.
  • Remove from the heat. Remove and discard the bay leaves, stir in the scallions and season.

DIRTY, DIRTY RICE



Dirty, Dirty Rice image

Believe it or not, the first place I ever had dirty rice was at Popeyes®. They were out of the red beans and rice. I'd never been a huge fan of liver before, but not only have I come to love dirty rice, I've also started to crave it with even more "dirt," i.e. more liver, pork, and aromatic vegetables, hence this redundantly named dish. While the traditional method cooks the rice first before "soiling" it, here we add all the "filth" at the beginning and cook it into the rice.

½ teaspoon cayenne pepper
½ teaspoon garlic powder

Cook, stirring occasionally, until vegetables continue to soften, about 5 minutes.

Season with salt, pour in broth, and bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Add bay leaf and Worcestershire sauce. Cover tightly; reduce heat to medium-low. Cook, without stirring, until most of the liquid is absorbed and rice is starting to get tender, about 25 minutes.
