Tasted very good and was easy to make. Perhaps my oven is baking well below 350 F but the recipe, I think, should call for perhaps 1 hour cooking time to make sure the carrots are done.

Can boneless pork chops be used in this recipe, and if so will the amount of baking time differ? Thank you.

I made this with exactly the specified ingredients followed the recipe to the letter. I could not use a 9x12 dish since there was too much liquid so I changed glass dish. I baked this for over 2 hours while pork chops were tender, rice mixture never absorbed the liquid. I finally removed the chops put the dish back into a 450 degree oven hoping I'll have some wild rice to eat with them. Clearly there is a typo in the recipe or I just wasted my money on beef broth. golden mushroom soup wild rice!

Hi there! Based on this comment we took the recipe back to the kitchen and retested it. Everything worked out great. We noticed that you mentioned a 9x12 dish. We used a 9x13 the recipe fit perfectly. We're sorry you had such a bad experience and hope you'll try it again. Thank you for the feedback!

We really like this casserole. It's the first time my grandson liked pork chops. I had to cook it at 425 for fifteen more minutes as another reviewer suggested but that's no problem. Winner dinner.

Sounds Great and there were so many comments. If I missed this in the Comments, Sorry, but can you use "Rice a Roni" instead of the Wild Rice? If so, I'm not sure there's a Pork flavor Can Beef or Chicken be used?
Test Kitchen Team
Oct 26, 2017
Hi there! Yes, you can use "Rice a Roni" of any flavor as a substitute in this recipe. But we recommend using thinner pork chops and reducing the cook time, so as to not over cook the rice. We hope this was helpful!

Way too much liquid for the rice. After 45 min., I had to take the chops out (covered with foil) and returned the rice to a hotter oven (uncovered) for another 15 minutes before most of the liquid was absorbed. The next time I make this, I will decrease the amounts of broth and water. Otherwise, we enjoyed this dish and I will make it again

Any one that cooks on a regular basis know all recipes depend on how hot your oven gets. Or your burners whether you are using gas or electric.OH yeah and how well you can follow directions. ( LOL) you have to have common sense when cooking. what works for one person doesn't always work for others.

Delicious! Simple easy! To any cooking 'newbies' just taste as you cook ( but not raw meats ). By tasting you'll know if the recipe needs more salt or pepper to your liking. To any trying recipes for the 1st time it's easier to add more spices, salt or pepper, harder to remove them ( if you've added to much salt etc. ) So taste recipes along the way. This is an excellent recipe for us 'old-timers' and beginners too! Don't forget canned soups broths have lots of salt/sodium! Adjust accordingly. I used plain white long grain rice which is what was on hand. And chicken broth as I had no beef broth. Came out fantastic! Don't be afraid to try substituting flavors of broth or soups ( or any ingredients such as the rice ) . Another recipe Keeper! Thanks!

Finally! Tender pork chops! I prefer the oven over the slow cooker for this recipe, as it gets a little crusty around the edges instead of a soft mush.

I used barley and quinoa instead of the rice mix and it turned out great! Easy.

Just put it all in a slow cooker. First pork chops, then rice(with seasoning pkg mixed in), chopped onion, minced garlic, creme mushroom creme chicken soups, 1 soup can of water or beef broth.
MaiaMarie
Mar 06, 2016
I used the roasted garlic cream of mushroom soup. Then I tasted the mixture to adjust the seasonings, so I ended up adding a pkg of onion soup mix to the 1c water. I too adjusted the baking time as an hour seemed a bit long for chops I'd already browned on the stove. YUM!!

Used the cream of mushroom soup and it worked very well casserole was not soupy had a good consistency good flavor Great recipe!

OK, now I know why it was so bland and I needed to add salt. No where in the recipe is it mentioned that the seasoning packet that comes in the prepackaged rice should also be added. Considering I did not use prepackaged that would have been good to know so the seasonings could have been added..

Neither of us likes wild rice so I used brown rice. Using the amount of liquids called for in the original and one cup of brown rice it turned out just right in consistency. The one deficiency I found was it needing more salt. I never use salt from the shaker but I did with this.
charlotte8899 5180 561

I have to agree, this is WAY TOO MUCH liquid. Mine was still very watery after baking it for over an hour! Please advise how to adjust the amount of liquid. Thank you. I'm going to put some corn starch in it to try and thicken in it up. My rating right now is a 2. I'll come back once I eat it and advise.
Test Kitchen Team
Nov 05, 2015
Hello! You can try making the recipe with 1/2 c water instead of 1 c water. Also, be advised that quick cooking rices will not work well for this recipe. A long-grain and wild rice combination will allow for a thicker consistency. Let us know if you make it again! We look forward to your response.

Can substitute cream of celery or cream of chicken soup... can also be made with chicken.. but always salt pepper then flour then brown before adding to dish or it will be dry and tasteless I sometimes add chopped celery to mix things up part of my first post got lost somehow and I wanted to add this
Test Kitchen Team
Nov 04, 2015
Hi there! The Test Kitchen is not sure a cream soup will work well in this recipe unless you add more water. The golden mushroom soup is a broth which is needed to cook the rice. If you add more water, the dish may end up being mushy. If you do use cream of celery or cream of chicken soup, let us know how it turned out for you. We would love to hear!

I just made it with cream of celery soup. It was delicious! I liked that the rice was a little soupy. It made a nice sauce for the pork. Everything was cooked great. Thank you!

why don't you try the recipes you promote. way to much liquid. this recipe sucks. quit putting out recipes that you now nothing about. I cook all the time something told me that this was not right. stick to another hobby because you are not a cook.

And by the way, it's "way too much liquid", not "way to much liquid". Maybe you should spend some time learning English instead of ripping the Mr. Food people.

I took the advice of lowering temp to 300 and adding cup more beef broth, 2 tsp minced garlic and extended time to 2 hrs. Rice (Zatarain's NO style 7oz) was perfect meat fell off bone. Flavors were outstanding.

I MADE THIS EXACTLY AS THE RECIPE STATED. I THOUGHT IT WAS BLAND, THE TOP OF THE RECIPE WAS COVERED IN ORANGE GREASE (FROM THE SOUP) AND THE PARSLEY(?) IN THE PACKET OF THE RICE FLOATED ALL TO THE TOP. THE PRESENTATION OF THE PORK CHOP CASSEROLE WAS GROSS. I HAVE A CHICKEN AND RICE RECIPE I MAKE AND IT'S WONDERFUL AND I USE CREAM OF CHICKEN AND CREAM OF CELERY SOUP, YOU CAN USE CHICKEN OR PORK CHOPS.

Made this dish but used only wild rice (pre-cooked) and beef broth and mushrooms (didn't have golden mushroom soup on hand). Also added some pepper and salt. Tasted very good.

Cooking for two. If I wanted to divide this into two 8 X 8 casseroles, could I freeze half? And if so, would I cook both before freezing?
Test Kitchen Team
Nov 25, 2014
Hello! - Yes, you can make half of this recipe in an 8 x 8 dish. However, rather than making both and freezing one, we recommend making this in two separate batches, so that the second one is as fresh-tasting as the first! Enjoy :)

This was wonderful, and it's easy to adjust it to make more or less. We buy a pork loin every once in a while and slice it into thick rounds. They come out fork-tender in this recipe.

It was really good, however I did add a cup of fresh sliced mushrooms which really put it over the top.

I have a 6 oz. box of chicken flavored wild rice mix in the cupboard. Can I make this and just omit the seasoning mix packet that comes with it?
wlldcats19472000 1 583298
Nov 06, 2014
Just add the seasoning packet and cut back maybe 1/2 cup of the beef broth and use 1/2 c. water instead. It should be pretty tasty.
wlldcats19472000 1 583298
Nov 06, 2014
Go ahead and use the seasoning packet. It will add some flavor, and if you cut back on the beef broth by maybe 1/2 c. and sub with water, it won't be too salty.

Can this be cooked in the crock pot? If so, how long will it need to cook on High? Or would it be better to cook on low?

I would like to make this receipe however I don't eat pork. Could you substitute the pork chops with chicken and if so would you recommend bone in or out?
Test Kitchen Team
Apr 28, 2014
Yes, you can substitute chicken for the pork. You can use either bone-in or boneless chicken, whichever you prefer. Please make sure that you adjust your cooking time for the cut of meat. Enjoy!

HOW WOULD YOU MAKE THIS FOR 2 PEOPLE. ?
Test Kitchen Team
Apr 24, 2014
Thank you for your question. We have a couple of suggestions for you. Your first option is to cut the recipe in half, so you would make 2 pork chops instead of 4. Or you could make the full recipe and have leftovers for either lunch or another dinner in the next few days. You could even try freezing the leftovers and when you are ready to have it next time, dinner is done!

I made the Pork Chop Casserole tonight and there was way to much liquid in this recipe for the amount of rice in the oz package The rice package calls for - cups of liquid and this recipe calls for cup water and cups beef broth and also a oz can of soup you add that all up and it totals way more then the rice box calls for It was more like a soup instead of the rice showen in the picture The pork chops where OK but they where soaked in all the liquid and I thought they where soggy not like the ones in the picture again I was very disappointed in this recipe If I try it again I will either use boxes of rice or cut the liquid down to - cups total And I do not think the pork chops need to be coated with…Read More flour I would just brown them and add them to the top of the dish

I think the broth and soup provide all the needed liquid so the water listed on the rice package in unnecessary.

I BET THIS RECIPE WOULD DO JUST FINE USING RICE-A-RONI. BUT, I WOULD ADD A LITTLE MORE LIQUID, TO MAKE SURE THE RICE DOESN'T DRY OUT. RECIPES AND RULES ARE MADE TO BE BROKEN...AND ISN'T IT FUN EXPERIMENTING SOMETIMES? I HAVE TO SAY THAT MOST OF THE RECIPES I FIND IN MR. FOOD, ARE TO MY LIKING, AND I DON'T OFTEN FEEL THE NEED TO CHANGE ANYTHING. BUT SOMETIMES.......LOL ENJOY COOKING, LADIES AND GENTLEMEN!

Typically, Mr. Food recipes are great! But not this one. :( I followed the recipe exactly. The rice never absorbed all of the liquid, and the pork chops were tough and without flavor. I will not be making this again.

Found the same thing with the rice but, chops were good, trying it again with minute rice. Fix the rice problem and will rate higher.Gave it a 2 for now-potentially good.

In order to get good tender chops in the oven, they need to be treated like ribs... low and slow.. I have made this in the past many times, but it requires a temp of 300degrees or lower and a time of 2 hours in the oven to get that tender chop. I would also add more liquid, so the rice doesn't dry out.

Been cooking a simular dish for years. But...here is what we do: 1. In an oven proof skillet with cover, brown all side of Boneless, flourless, trimmed of fat pork chop in small amount of canola oil. 2. Remove from heat, add Golden Mushroom soup...no broth and a 4 oz can of mushrooms over top of pork chops. 3. cover and bake in 325 degree oven for about 1 1/2 hours or until fork tender. 4. serve with garlic mashed potatoes and Brussel sprouts on the side. 5. Stir up mixture in pan and spoon it over pork chops and potatoes. This works for us.

Printed this oveor a year ago and first made it a few days ago. It does have too much liquid for six servings - but if cooking for leftovers - the recipe is perfect. My husband LOVES this recipe.

I used Uncle Ben's in the box along with the flavor packet. It came out pretty soupy, I will probably eliminate some of the liquid next time.

A bit too salty for our liking. Next time, I will omit the mushroom soup, use water instead of the beef broth and increase water to 2 cups. I will also add another box of rice only using one of the seasoning packets.

This sounds delicious. My only problem with the recipe is, with the golden mushroom soup and the beef broth, I think it might have too much sodium. More and more people these days have a need to watch their salt intake. There are sooo many of us that would like for you to make available the nutritional facts....calories, carbs, fat, sodium, fiber, protein, cholesterol. I am going to try this. LOVE ALL YOU RECIPES!

Why do you always use white rice for everything? Brown rice is so much healthier, but would require maybe 5 more min. of cooking?
meatandtaters
Jun 18, 2012
If y'all want to use brown rice, use it. If you want low sodium, buy it instead. If you need to know nutrition facts figure them out for yourselves, you are the ones whose health you are watching. Why do you read the receipies then start griping or changing?

Made this for my 48 year old son and his reaction was, "Mom, this is definitely a keeper". We love it and I will try it using chicken, but certainly do not expect it to be any better than the pork. Wonderful, easy and reheats beautifully!!!

This recipe was excellent. I did try it again but substituted cream of chicken soup, chicken broth and chicken for the pork chops, golden mushroom soup and beef broth. I followed the rest of the directions as the pork recipe and it was fantastic.
