Ingredients
- 2 boneless center-cut pork chops
- 1 packet Lipton French Onion Soup Mix
- 1 medium onion, thinly sliced
- 2 tablespoons butter
- ½ cup water (or broth, optional for more sauce)
Instructions
1. Prep the Crock Pot
Place the sliced onions in the bottom of your slow cooker. This creates a flavorful bed for the pork chops and keeps them moist.
2. Add the Pork Chops
Lay the pork chops on top of the onions. Sprinkle the Lipton French Onion Soup mix evenly over the chops.
3. Add Butter
Place the butter on top—this melts down into the onions and seasoning, creating a rich, savory gravy.
4. Slow Cook
Cover and cook on LOW for 6–7 hours or HIGH for 3–4 hours, until the pork chops are fork-tender.
5. Serve
Spoon the onions and savory broth over the pork chops before serving. They’re delicious with mashed potatoes, rice, or egg noodles to soak up all that flavorful gravy.
