Chop Quickie

Submitted by HannahBoBana

"This is a recipe that has been passed down through my family and we love, love, love it!! My husband calls it Chop Long Time, only because although it takes only 10 minutes to do the prep, it takes about 2-3 hours in the oven. I've done this recipe on the stove, in the oven and in the slow cooker and all have worked wonderfully! Enjoy!"

This recipe is WONDERFUL. I grew up cooking rice and tomatoe gravy on the farm, and recently I just happened on this recipe. It had all the essence of fried pork chops and rice and tomato gravy without all the work, so I thought, I'm going to try it, but it just CAN'T be as good......well, it WAS! And the oven does all the work, and it's not FRIED food. Thank you SO much for this recipe. I'm forever grateful. Freida in Texas
