📝 Ingredients:

• 6 boneless pork loin chops (thick cut)
• 2½ tbsp paprika
• 1 tbsp salt
• 1 tbsp garlic powder
• 1 tbsp black pepper
• 2 tbsp onion powder
• 1 tbsp dried oregano
• 1 tbsp dried thyme
• 1 tbsp adobo seasoning
• 1 large onion, thinly sliced
• 2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
• 4 tbsp butter, divided
• 4 cups very thinly sliced potatoes (use a mandoline if you’ve got one!)
• 1 (10.75 oz) can cream of mushroom soup
• 1¼ cups milk

👨‍🍳 Instructions:

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
2. In a small bowl, mix all the seasonings—paprika, salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, oregano, thyme, and adobo. Generously coat the pork chops with this spice blend and set them aside.
3. Lightly butter a 2-quart baking dish or spray with nonstick spray.
4. In a large skillet over medium-high heat, melt 2 tablespoons of butter. Add the minced garlic, then lay in the seasoned pork chops. Sear both sides until golden brown, then remove from the pan.
5. Add the remaining butter to the skillet. Toss in the onions and cook until they’re soft and fragrant.
6. Pour in the cream of mushroom soup and gradually whisk in the milk until smooth and creamy. Take off the heat.
7. Layer the thin potato slices across the bottom of the prepared dish.
8. Place the browned pork chops on top of the potatoes. Then pour the soup-onion mixture over everything, spreading it evenly.
9. Cover with foil and bake for 30 minutes.
10. Uncover and continue baking for another 40 minutes, until the potatoes are fork-tender and the top is bubbly and golden.
11. Optional: Sprinkle with parsley before serving.
