PORK CHOP AND RICE CASSEROLE
This simple recipe was handed down to me from my grandmother. She was a fabulous cook that could master elaborate dishes, but she also taught me how to make some easy and delicious meals. Slow baking makes this a 'fall of the bone' dish with even tougher cuts of pork!

SPICY SPANISH PORK CHOPS AND RICE CASSEROLE
This is so flavorful. It is a combination of a couple different recipes and my own personal touches. We like things spicy, so use mild rotel and omit the jalapeno and tabasco if you don't want spicy. I'm going to try this with brown rice next time, I have a feeling it would be really good. I'll let you know!

Tips:
- Use a good quality pork chop. Look for chops that are thick and evenly marbled.
- Don't overcook the pork chops. They should be cooked to an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Use a flavorful rice. A long-grain rice, such as basmati or jasmine, will work well in this dish.
- Don't be afraid to add some heat. The chorizo and paprika in this dish provide a nice kick, but you can add more cayenne pepper or chili powder if you like.
- Serve with your favorite sides. This dish goes well with a simple green salad, roasted vegetables, or mashed potatoes.
