Scale

- 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
- 1 teaspoon dry mustard
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 6 pork loin chops (about 3/4 inch thick) trimmed
- 2 tablespoons canola oil
- 8 ounces sliced mushrooms, optional
- 1 can (10 3/4 ounces) condensed cream of chicken soup or cream of mushroom, undiluted
- 1/4 cup water
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour blended with 1 to 2 tablespoons of water, optional
Instructions
- In a bowl or bag, combine the flour, salt, mustard, paprika, and garlic powder; coat the pork chops thoroughly with the seasoned flour mixture.
- Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat; brown the chops for about 8 minutes, turning to brown both sides. Place the browned pork chops in slow cooker.
- Add the mushrooms to the pan drippings and cook until golden, stirring frequently. Spoon the mushrooms over the pork chops.
- Combine soup and water; pour over chops.
- Cover and cook on low for 6 to 8 hours or until meat is tender.
- If a thicker sauce mixture is desired, strain the liquids into a saucepan and bring to a boil; lower the heat and simmer for 2 to 3 minutes to reduce and concentrate flavors. Add the optional flour and water mixture. Blend well and cook until thickened.
- Serve the pork chops and mushrooms with the sauce.
