Pork Chop Hash Brown Casserole is a one pan meal. Seasoned pork chops baked on top of a creamy, cheesy hash brown casserole!

A WHOLE MEAL IN ONE PAN

I love entire meals that cook all in one dish. It takes the guesswork out of figuring out side dishes to go along with your main dish. That is always the hardest part of meal planning for me - deciding on side dishes! By the time I am done preparing and cooking the main dish, then I have to start on side dishes. It can be time consuming and create a lot of dishes. This pork chop hash brown casserole solves that problem for you!

Frequently asked questions:

Can I use boneless pork chops?

You could as long as they are thick. The flavor of bone-in pork chops really holds up to the cooking process in this casserole dish.

What should I serve as a side dish?

This really is an all-in-one meal. However, I think you could definitely serve it with some steamed green beans, MAPLE GLAZED CARROTS or my 2-INGREDIENT CREAM BISCUITS.

Is it necessary to brown the pork chops first?

Do not skip this step. Browning adds so much flavor to the pork chops. It also adds a beautiful golden color that makes it appealing. Just don't brown the pork chops for too long or they will start to cook all the way through and we don't want overcooked, rubbery pork chops when the casserole is finished.

HOW TO MAKE BAKED PORK CHOP HASH BROWN CASSEROLE

Preheat oven to 375F degrees. Preheat a large skillet over high heat. Pour in oil.

Season both sides of the pork chops with salt, pepper and garlic powder. Once skillet is nice and hot, add in pork chops and brown pork chops on both sides in hot oil. You will need to do this in batches. Be sure not to cook pork chops all the way through, they will finish cooking in the oven.

Note: you may need to add more oil to the pan while browning the pork chops. Set aside browned pork chops while making hash brown mixture.
