Gravy Baked Pork Chops

Gravy Baked Pork Chops
from www.cooks.com

INGREDIENTS:

4 lean pork chops (1/2-3/4 inch thickness)
1/4 tsp. salt
1/8 tsp. pepper
pinch of garlic powder
1 large onion, sliced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tbsp. butter, melted
1 can Cream of Mushroom soup
2/3 cup evaporated milk (1 small can)
1/3 cup water

DIRECTIONS:
1. Sprinkle pork chops with salt, pepper and garlic powder.
2. On the stove top over medium high heat, brown the pork chops and onion in a skillet with butter. Add garlic after first side is browned (do not allow the garlic to become dark).
3. Turn to brown both sides of the pork chops. Pour off any excess butter after pork chops are browned. The pork chops don't need to be cooked through because they will be finished in the oven.
4. Combine soup, evaporated milk (not sweetened condensed milk!) and water. Pour mixture around pork chops.
5. Bake in a preheated 350°F oven for about 45 minutes, stirring every now and then.

*These pork chops were really good served with mashed potatoes and the gravy. I loved the cooked onions and the gravy was delicious!
