Cozy up on chilly nights with this comforting pork chop casserole featuring creamy mashed potatoes, tender seasoned chops, and savory caramelized onions and mushrooms.
Ingredients:
  • 1 pouch (4.7 oz) Betty Crocker™ creamy butter mashed potatoes
  • Water, butter and milk called for on mashed potato pouch
  • 2 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh Italian (flat-leaf) parsley
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme leaves
  • 3 tablespoons butter
  • 4 boneless pork loin chops, 1/2 to 3/4 inch thick (6 oz each), trimmed of fat
  • 3/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • 2 medium onions, halved and cut into 1/4-inch slices (4 cups)
  • 1 package (8 oz) cremini mushrooms, sliced
  • 1 cup Progresso™ chicken broth (from 32-oz carton)
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 4 teaspoons Gold Medal™ all-purpose flour
Instructions:
  • Preheat oven to 400°F. Grease the bottom of an 11x8-inch (2-quart) glass baking dish with cooking spray. Prepare the mashed potatoes according to the package instructions; mix in cream cheese, 1 tablespoon parsley, and 2 teaspoons thyme. Spread the mixture into the baking dish and set aside.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon of butter in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat. Season pork with 1/2 teaspoon of salt and pepper. Sear pork for 1 to 2 minutes on each side until browned. Place the pork on top of the potatoes in a baking dish.
  • Melt the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter in a skillet with onions, the remaining 1 teaspoon of thyme, and 1/4 teaspoon of salt. Cook over medium-high heat for 7 to 8 minutes, stirring frequently, until the onions are browned and tender. Add the mushrooms, reduce heat to medium, and cook for an additional 4 to 5 minutes until tender.
  • Combine chicken broth, Worcestershire sauce, and flour in a 1-cup glass measuring cup. Transfer the mixture to a skillet and bring to a boil. Stir and cook for 3 to 5 minutes until the sauce thickens. Pour the sauce over the pork chops in a baking dish.
  • Bake until pork reaches 145°F with instant-read thermometer, about 18 to 25 minutes. Sprinkle with remaining tablespoon of parsley before serving.
