We thought this was quite good -- a nice change from so many of the crockpot recipes that use canned cream soup as a base. The combination of spices and herbs sounds strange, but combined to make a nice, rich, herby flavor. Used the listed amounts of all the spices, w/a few exceptions: I replaced the tbsp of garlic powder w/onion powder (since I used 2 lrg cloves of fresh garlic crushed in my garlic press). I also seemed to be out of basil & oregano, so used nearly a tbsp of Italian seasoning. Also used more than 1 cup of broth, but less than the whole can, since I was cooking 6 chops inst. of 4. I cooked on low for 8 hours -- smelled SO delicious when I got home from work, and my husband wondered what smelled so great when he got home. The sauce was great over steamed rice and the meat was tender and flavorful. Even the kids liked it. All in all, a very easy, tasty recipe -- I will make this again. Would also be good w/a small pork roast.
We loved this recipe! It has a mediterranean taste to it. I doubled the liquid and it cooked in half the time with 1 inch chops. My teenager boys loved it! The gravy was excellent over rice and steamed veggies.
I thought the meat was super tender and flavorful. I sauted the garlic in the oil first before mixing it with the rest of the spices. I also browned the chops in the same pan that I sauted the garlic in before adding to the crock pot. Plus I added extra chicken broth. Great served with long grain wild rice. Will definately make again.
For those of you who think you are a chef or just even a good cook.... Quit watching all the cooking shows and picking apart recipes that people put on here. This recipe I thought was very good. Unitl you come up with your own original recipe that "rocks" everyones world. "Shut the heck Up" It's about preferencem what you as and indiviudual likes. Grow the heck up!!
My daughter says this should be given 5 stars. I tend to agree. My husband loved it as well. The only thing I changed in this recipe was to cook it on low for 8 hours instead of 'high' for 4. I also added 2 cups of chicken broth instead of one. The chops were extremely tender and very tasty. This will be made again. Thank you!
Loved it!!The best recipe I've found on this web-site in 5 ys. I agree it tasted mediterranean. I doubled the chicken broth used garlic salt instead of powder added green beans the last half hour used pork loin chops & served it over Basmati rice.
This recipe tasted great and the pork chops were so tender they ended up falling apart. The only down side was it was a little oily for me so next time I will reduce the oil. I also added a little balsamic vinegar to the mix for extra flavor. Overall very good and I will make it again.
These chops were great. They were so tender you could cut through them with a fork. The spices/herb were strong but very yummy. If you are at home while cooking these it would be beneficial to baste or turn the chops every few hours. The bottom side of our chops were much more flavored than the top side.
This recipe was VERY good! My husband isn't a huge fan of pork chops but I am and was looking for something easy to do with them yet still being flavorful. This recipe fit the bill! Most ingredients are those you would most likely have on hand in your kitchen and it doesn't get any easier than this. The pork chops literally were fall apart tender. I used thick chops and cooked them on low for 8 hours. EXCELLENT! Thank you so much for the great recipe!
Good, for a crock pot recipe. I find it hard to get the perfect, "fall-off-the-bone yet not too dry" texture that I like - I think crock-pots vary so it's diffictult to gage. I do not reccomend "basting" as the recipe calls for, as that defeats the purpose of using a crock pot - you do not want heat to escape until the very end. This was good and easy, but not the best way to cook a flavorful pork chop. Do it, if you need something easy.
