Slow Cooker Pork Chops

These have to be the easiest slow cooker recipe yet. If you have a meat and potatoes lover in your life this is the meal for him/her.

Serves 6

6 large, bone in pork chops
2 large shallots, minced
1 can cream of mushroom soup(I used an organic brand)
1/4 cup dry white or marsala wine
1/4 cup chicken stock
1/2 cup flour
1/2 tsp dry mustard
2 tsp salt(I used 3 tsp montreal steak seasoning instead)
1/2 tsp pepper
1/2 tsp onion powder
1/2 tsp dry thyme
2 tbsp olive oil
1/2 cup cold water
2 tbsp corn starch

Place the flour, salt, pepper and onion powder in a large zip lock bag. Drop the chops into the bag, seal and shake to coat them. Heat the oil in a large skillet. Add the chops and brown an both sides. Spray the slow cooker's insert with cooking spray. Lay the chops on the bottom. Sprinkle the shallots and thyme over the top. Pour the soup over all and pour the stock and thyme over the soup. Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours. One hour before serving, skim off any fat and add the corn starch that has been mixed into the cold water. Adjust seasoning if necessary and return the cover. Raise the heat to high and let the chops cook for the remaining hour. Serve over mashed potatoes.
