With this Crockpot Pork Chop Recipe there’s no chance that these pork chops will turn out dry, as can often happen.
The pork chops are slowly simmered with broth and vegetables after having been seasoned and browned in a little olive oil.
The long slow cooking over low heat ensures they will be tender and juicy.
A fabulous sauce is made with sour cream and the cooking juices left in the crockpot, ready to pour over the chops and whatever you choose to serve with them – how about rice pilaf?
Sour Cream Crockpot Pork Chop Recipe
Ingredients
6 pork chops, about 6 ounces each
2 tablespoons olive oil
6 ounces sour cream
1 large yellow onion, cut in 1/4 inch slices
2 cups chicken broth
Kosher salt and ground black pepper
1 teaspoon granulated garlic or garlic powder
1/2 cup all purpose flour
2 tablespoons cornstarch
Directions
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet. Season each pork chop with the kosher salt, black pepper and the granulated garlic. Coat each chop in the flour and brown them on each side in the olive oil.
Put the browned pork chops in the bottom of a slow cooker or crockpot. Arrange the onion slices on top of the chops and pour in the broth. Cover the pot and cook on low for about 6 hours, until the chops are very tender.
Remove the pork chops from the pot and keep them warm in the oven, heated to 200F.
Whisk 2 tablespoons of water into the cornstarch. Pour this mixture into the crockpot and stir. Let the sauce simmer over low heat until it is thickened, then whisk in the sour cream and let the sauce simmer again until it is heated through.
Put the finished pork chops on a heated serving platter and smother them in the sour cream sauce.
Serve hot.

Good To Know – for a slightly more intense flavor, use 2 chicken bouillon cubes mixed with 1 1/2 cups of boiling water. Make sure the cubes are completely dissolved before pouring over the pork chops. For a thicker consistency, use 1 can of condensed cream of chicken soup instead of the broth or bouillon.
Food For Thought – You can make this a little more substantial by adding 1 cup of sliced mushrooms when you start the cooking. To build up the flavors even more, saute 1/2 chopped onion with another 1/2 cup mushrooms, season the mixture with kosher salt, ground black pepper and granulated garlic, then spoon a little of these vegetables over each pork chop after you have covered them with the sour cream sauce.
