Pork Chops and Scalloped Potatoes
A comforting and classic dish of pork chops cooked to perfection alongside creamy, cheesy scalloped potatoes.
Ingredients
- 4 pork chops bone-in, approx. 1 inch thick
- 3 cups potatoes thinly sliced
- 1 cup onion chopped
- 2 cups cheddar cheese shredded
- 2 tablespoons butter unsalted
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 2 cups milk whole
- 1 teaspoon salt to taste
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper freshly ground
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a large skillet over medium-high heat, melt the butter. Add flour and cook, stirring constantly, for about 1 minute.
- Gradually add milk, whisking until the mixture is smooth and thickened. Add salt and black pepper to taste.
- Layer half of the potatoes in a greased 9×13 inch baking dish. Sprinkle with half of the onions and cheese. Pour over half of the milk mixture.
- Repeat layers, ending with the remaining cheese on top.
- Place pork chops over the potato mixture and cover the dish with aluminum foil.
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 1 hour, or until the potatoes are tender and pork chops have reached an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).
- Remove the foil during the last 15 minutes of baking for a golden top. Let it rest for a few minutes before serving.
