Stick of Butter Smothered Pork Chops
  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C). Pour the rice into a 9x13-inch baking dish.

  2. 2

    Add the French onion soup, chicken broth, and Worcestershire, then stir to combine. Top with the butter slices.

  3. 3

    Season both sides of the pork chops with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika, then place them on top of the rice mixture.

  4. 4

    Stir the sliced onion and mushroom soup together in a medium bowl. Fill the soup can with water and stir it into the onion mixture. Pour the mixture over the pork chops and cover with foil.

  5. 5

    Bake in the preheated oven for 40 to 45 minutes.

  6. 6

    Uncover and, if needed, gently stir any uncooked rice under or around the pork into the remaining rice mixture.

  7. 7

    Continue baking until the pork is no longer pink in the center and the onion mixture is lightly browned, about 20 minutes more. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).

  8. 8

    Sprinkle with chopped parsley before serving.
