got a new 6 quart crock pot. however, I usually just cook for my husband and me. I'm thinking of making this. It says if the crock pot is not 1/2 full to subtract 1 to 2 hours from total time. However, the recipe really doesn't have a time. Can someone please help me? I need some kind of an estimate of when to start. Also, as a bonus, I wonder how they are scalloped if there is no cheese in the ingrediants. hmmmm. Thanks so much for your help. It's 11am and I havent' even started yet, but it's ok if we dont' eat until 6/7pm the latest.
Pork Chops with Scalloped Potatoes
3 Tbs. butter or margarine
3 Tbs. all purpose flour
1 ½ tsp. salt
¼ tsp. pepper
1 can (14 ½ oz) chicken broth
6 rib or loin pork chops ( ¾ inch thick)
2 Tbs. cooking oil
6 cups thinly sliced, peeled potatoes (about 4 lb.)
1 medium onion, sliced
In a greased crock pot (or a greased 13 in by 9 in by 2 in baking dish), layer potatoes and onion.
In a skillet, brown pork chops in oil. Season to taste with additional salt and pepper if desired. Remove pork chops from pan and set aside.
Melt butter in skillet. Stir in flour, salt and pepper. Add broth and cook, stirring constantly, until mixture boils. Cook for 1 minute. Pour the broth mixture over potatoes and onions. Place pork chops on top. Cover and bake in crock pot all day on low (or in 350 degrees for one hour, covered, and an additional 30 minutes longer or until potatoes are tender, uncovered.)
Yield : 6 servings, Serving Suggestions – steamed vegetables and homemade rolls
