Servings: 4
Ingredients
- 4 medium thick-cut pork chops
- Salt and black pepper to taste
- 1 yellow onion sliced or diced
- 4 ounces sliced mushrooms
- 1 packet beefy onion soup mix
- 3 ounces tomato paste
- 1 cup water
- 1 tablespoon low-sodium soy sauce
Instructions
- Season both sides of the pork chops with salt and black pepper.
- Place the sliced onion and mushrooms in the bottom of a slow cooker.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the beefy onion soup mix, tomato paste, water, and soy sauce until well combined.
- Pour the sauce mixture over the onions and mushrooms, then stir gently to combine.
- Arrange the seasoned pork chops on top of the vegetable mixture.
- Cover and cook on Low for 5 hours, or until the pork chops are tender and cooked through.
- Spoon the onion-mushroom gravy over the pork chops before serving.
Notes
- Use medium thick-cut pork chops so they hold up during the slow cooking time.
- Whisk the tomato paste into the sauce well before pouring it into the slow cooker.
- Serve with mashed potatoes, rice, or egg noodles so the gravy has something to soak into.
- Store leftovers with the gravy so the pork stays moist when reheated.
