20 Minute Pork Chop Rice One Pot Recipe is an economical and healthy meal; tasty pork chops and rice are bathed in a rich sauce your family will love.
Friends often make the assumption that because I like to cook that I want to cook and have time to cook every meal. In reality, I’m just like you, I struggle with juggling work and family activities. Granted, I can throw a dessert together in minutes. However, satisfying my sweet tooth is much easier than satisfying three food critic boys!
So how do I put a home-cooked meal on the table during busy weeknights? The trick is short cut products like Success® Rice. Success® Rice is the original boil-in-bag rice that cooks perfectly every time and is ready in 10 minutes. The Brown Rice I used is 100% whole grain and gluten-free. There are 3 other varieties available: White Rice, Thai Jasmine, and Basmati.

The secret to my 20-minute meal is I cook everything in one pot. Quick-cooking and quick clean-up. I actually take the rice out of the bag, it’s all good, it’s still conveniently premeasured cutting down on prep time for me.
Did you know when your heating a pan, you first need to heat the pan without fat in it? The process is to heat the pan, then add the fat, in this case, oil, then allow the oil to heat and ripple before adding your protein. This reduces the chances of burning the oil.
If you have 20 minutes and pork chops in the fridge, you can have this dinner ready to serve your family.

Thanks for sharing , easy recipe and dinner was fast and done before it knew it♥️♥️♥️
Thank you! I’m so happy he liked it. I love an easy recipe. 😆
I have been making this for 50 years. A family friend gave me the recipe back in. The 60’s. The only difference is the mushroom steak sauce. It is not part of my recipe.
I use 2 cups of rice to the 4 cups of water that the lipton onion soup envelope calls for. We have this often.
