Today I am going to share with you one of my favorite pork chop recipes. Sometimes simple is best. This pork chop and rice bake is a fix-it-and-forget-it kind of meal. Fork tender pork chops and flavorful rice, simply the best.
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. In a medium skillet, melt the butter over medium-low heat. Add the rice and saute until it is light brown, about 5 minutes. Spread the rice in a 9×13 casserole dish. Season the pork chops with the salt and arrange them on top of the rice. Pour the broth and water over the chops. Spread the onion rings and green peppers over the chops and sprinkle with the pepper. Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake for 45 minutes, or until pork chops are tender.
Remove the pork chops to a plate and keep warm, then cover the dish and return the rice to the oven for an additional 15 minutes. If the rice is dry, add a bit more water before returning to the oven (dependent on the climate). I checked the pork chops after 45 minutes. The rice was almost done so I did not remove the pork chops. I just recovered the dish with aluminum foil and continued cooking an additional 15 minutes. Total time was 1 hour and the pork chops and rice were both perfect.
Serve the pork chops on a bed of the rice.

This was very yummy and very easy. I used brown rice instead of the the long grain white rice and had to cook it about 15 mins longer…but that’s expected. A definite in my kitchen again 
I thought this was a great meal. Unfortunately, I made it on a night my husband didn’t eat and most of the kids were not feeling well. I’ll have to make it again soon!
