    This recipe looked great and I had just happened to take out port chops for dinner! However, I tried what I had on hand which was cream of chicken soup, canned potatoes, fresh baby carrots and fresh frozen green beans. I seasoned, saute, left chops on the bottom, added green beans, carrots, potatoes and soup with some water mixed in on top and set it to stew! looked good smelled good and I’m going to top with fried onion rings!

    Can I use boneless pork chops?

    1. I have only made the recipe as written Karen, but I think those would workout just fine

    I did play with the spices a bit. Flavor was great. The carrots and potatoes were a bit too soft for my preference at 18 min. I’ll do some research to see how best to solve that. Perhaps cook the chops for a while, stop and put in the veggies?
