Pork Chop Cassarole
ReplyDelete4-6 Pork Chops (I prefer boneless)
Beef Broth
Rice
Put 2 cups of uncooked rice in a cassarole dish. Add 4 cups of beef broth. Season pork chops and layer on top of rice. Bake @ 350 until rice is cooked.. approx 30 minutes.
SO SO easy. The broth gives the rice a great flavor. Sometimes the backing make the top layer of the rice a little crispy..But under that the rice is tender and cooked.
Pork Chops can be substituted with chicken and you can use chicken broth instead of beef.
Enjoy
