Crock Pot Pork And Rice Ingredients

• 4 boneless pork chops (about 1.3 pounds)
• 1 packet onion soup mix (1 ounce)
• 1 teaspoon minced garlic (or ½ teaspoon garlic powder)
• 1 teaspoon dried parsley
• ½ teaspoon ground mustard
• ½ teaspoon black pepper
• 2 ½ cups chicken stock or chicken broth
• 1 can cream of chicken soup (10.5 ounces)
• 1 can cream of mushroom soup (10.5 ounces)
• 2 tablespoons salted butter
• 1 cup long grain white rice (basmati or jasmine)

How To Make Crock Pot Pork And Rice

1. Prepare slow cooker and layer pork: Spray the inside of the crock pot with nonstick spray. Place the pork chops in the bottom.
2. Mix sauce ingredients: In a medium bowl, combine onion soup mix, garlic, parsley, mustard, pepper, chicken stock, and both cream soups. Stir until smooth.
3. Add sauce and cook: Pour the mixture over the pork chops and top with butter. Cover and cook on low for 3 hours.
4. Add rice: Rinse the rice well to remove excess starch, then stir it into the crock pot. Cover and cook for 30 minutes.
5. Stir and finish cooking: Open, stir gently, cover again, and cook another 30 minutes, or until the rice is tender. Top with parsley and serve warm.

Recipe Tips

• Does this recipe make fluffy rice? No, this makes creamy rice similar to a casserole texture.
• Can I use brown rice? Brown rice takes longer to cook and isn’t recommended for this timing.
• Why rinse the rice? Rinsing removes extra starch, helping prevent overly gummy rice.
• How to prevent mushy rice: Cook the rice only 30–60 minutes after adding; overcooking will soften it too much.
• Best way to add flavor: Use low-sodium broth and adjust salt at the end for best taste.

What To Serve With Crock Pot Pork And Rice

How To Store Crock Pot Pork And Rice

Refrigerate: Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days. Reheat gently in the microwave with a splash of broth or water.

Freeze: Not recommended, as the creamy rice texture doesn’t freeze well.
