Ingredients
  

4 boneless pork chops (approximately 1 inch thick)

1 packet (1 oz) ranch seasoning mix

1 cup cream of mushroom soup (or a homemade substitute)

1/2 cup chicken broth

1/2 cup sour cream

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1/2 teaspoon onion powder

1/4 teaspoon black pepper

1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese

Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Pork Chops: Begin by patting the pork chops dry with a paper towel to remove excess moisture. Lightly season both sides of the pork chops with salt and pepper, adjusting to your taste preferences.

    Mix the Sauce: In a medium mixing bowl, combine the ranch seasoning mix, cream of mushroom soup, chicken broth, sour cream, garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper. Stir the ingredients together thoroughly until the mixture is smooth and uniform in consistency.

      Layer the Ingredients: Place the seasoned pork chops in the bottom of the crockpot, ensuring they are arranged in a single layer. Carefully pour the creamy ranch mixture over the pork chops, making sure they are evenly coated to enhance flavor.

        Cook: Secure the lid on the crockpot and select the cooking function. Cook on low for 6 to 7 hours or on high for 3 to 4 hours. The pork chops are ready when they become tender and can be easily shred with a fork.

          Add Cheese: During the last 30 minutes of cooking, stir in the shredded cheddar cheese until it is fully incorporated. Cover the crockpot again to allow the cheese to melt and blend into the creamy sauce.

            Garnish and Serve: Once the cooking time is complete, serve the creamy ranch pork chops over a bed of fluffy rice or creamy mashed potatoes. Drizzle additional sauce from the crockpot over the top for added flavor and finish with a sprinkle of freshly chopped parsley for a bright, appealing presentation.
