This pork chop casserole is a hybrid of a couple different recipes. Part cheesy potatoes plus the cook time and sour cream sauce similar to this old recipe for chicken supreme. The low and slow cook time in the oven ensures tender pork chops. The potatoes provide a built-in side dish that’s pure comfort food. And since I’m using both frozen potatoes and onions, the prep time is minimal. It’s an easy and inexpensive dinner for a busy weeknight that’s sure to become a family favorite.

Ingredients for old fashioned pork chop casserole
- Boneless Pork Chops – Six boneless chops that are nice and lean are perfect for this recipe. I was able to find a package of four chops for $5 making this a really inexpensive meal. I froze the rest of the pork chops for later use. This is not a recipe for bone-in pork chops. However, you could substitute the pork chops with chicken breasts.
- Frozen Hash Browns – Use one 32-ounce bag of frozen cubed potatoes.
- Frozen Onions – I like the convenience of using a 10-ounce bag of frozen, chopped onions. You can use a fresh onion if you prefer.
- Cream of Mushroom Soup – Use on 10-ounce can of cream of mushroom soup to help make the sauce. You could really use any kind of cream soup you like, even cream of chicken soup.
- Butter – Four tablespoons of melted butter add richness and flavor to the lean pork chops.
- Sour Cream – Sour cream is the base of this luscious, creamy sauce for both the tender potatoes and the pork.
- White Wine – A little white wine adds some nice brightness to the rich sauce.
- Salt – Helps to flavor the casserole, add more at the end to taste.
- Parsley – I always like to garnish a casserole like this with fresh, green herbs.
- Cheddar Cheese – Grated cheese is sprinkled on at the end for added flavor. A nice alternative to cheddar cheese would be slices of Swiss cheese.
- Fried Onions – I love the crunch that the french-fried onions add to the casserole.
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F. Spread the potatoes in an even layer in the bottom of a 9x 13 casserole dish. Place the pork chops on top of of the potatoes.
Microwave together the onions, butter and cream of mushroom soup until the butter is melted. Whisk in the sour cream, white wine, parsley and salt.
Pour the sour cream sauce evenly over the pork chops. Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake for two hours. Remove the foil. Increase the temperature of the oven to 500 degrees F. Sprinkle the top of pork chops evenly with the cheddar cheese and fried onions.
Continue baking the casserole for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted. Keep scrolling for my free printable recipe card with complete list of ingredients.
