When you need a hearty dinner that feels comforting without a lot of work, these 5-ingredient slow cooker boneless pork chops are such a dependable choice. The slow cooker does all the heavy lifting, turning simple pantry staples and raw boneless pork chops into a tender, creamy main dish that tastes like you spent far more time on it than you really did. It is the kind of family supper that works well on busy weekdays but still feels cozy enough for a Sunday meal.
These pork chops are especially good served over mashed potatoes, egg noodles, or rice so none of that rich sauce goes to waste. For vegetables, I like to add green beans, buttered corn, or a simple side salad to balance the creamy texture. Warm biscuits or dinner rolls are also wonderful for soaking up the extra sauce at the table.
5-Ingredient Slow Cooker Boneless Pork Chops
Servings: 4
Ingredients
4 boneless pork chops, about 1 to 1 1/2 inches thick
1 packet ranch seasoning mix, about 1 ounce
1 packet brown gravy mix, about 0.87 ounce
1 can cream of chicken soup, 10.5 ounces
1 cup chicken broth
Directions
1. Lightly grease the slow cooker if desired, then place the raw boneless pork chops in an even layer in the bottom.
2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the ranch seasoning, brown gravy mix, cream of chicken soup, and chicken broth until smooth.
3. Pour the sauce over the pork chops, making sure each chop is well coated.
4. Cover and cook on low for 5 to 6 hours or on high for 2 1/2 to 3 1/2 hours, until the pork chops are tender and cooked through.
5. Gently spoon some of the hot sauce over the pork chops before serving, then plate with your favorite side dishes.
Variations & Tips
For mushroom lovers: Add 1 cup sliced mushrooms to the slow cooker before cooking for an earthy flavor that goes beautifully with the creamy gravy.
For picky eaters: Serve the pork chops with the sauce spooned on the side instead of over the top, so everyone can add as much or as little as they like.
For extra richness: Stir in a few tablespoons of sour cream at the end of cooking for an even silkier sauce. Be sure to mix gently so the pork chops stay intact.
To avoid dry pork chops: Try to use pork chops that are on the thicker side, and check for doneness at the earlier end of the cooking range since slow cookers can vary.
Easy gravy tip: If you want a thicker sauce, remove the cooked pork chops, then whisk a cornstarch slurry of 1 tablespoon cornstarch and 1 tablespoon water into the slow cooker juices. Cover and cook a few more minutes until thickened.
