Instructions

Season the Pork Chops and Potatoes: In a small bowl, combine garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Sprinkle half the seasoning mixture evenly over the pork chops, then sprinkle the remaining half over the potatoes. Toss the potatoes to coat them well with the seasoning.
Prepare the Crockpot: Spray the bottom of the crockpot with cooking spray to prevent sticking. Add the seasoned potatoes to form a base layer in the crockpot.
Sear the Pork Chops: Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Once hot, sear the pork chops for about 2 minutes per side until the edges are nicely browned. This step helps to lock in flavor and improve texture.
Layer the Pork Chops: Place the browned pork chops directly over the potatoes in the crockpot, distributing them evenly.
Prepare and Add Sauce: In a bowl, whisk together the condensed cream of chicken soup and chicken broth until smooth. Pour this creamy mixture evenly over the pork chops and potatoes in the crockpot.
Cook in the Crockpot: Cover the crockpot with its lid and cook on high for 3 to 4 hours or on low for 6 to 8 hours, until the pork chops are tender and the potatoes are cooked through.

Notes

You can use boneless or bone-in pork chops; both work well with this recipe.
For variation, substitute the cream of chicken soup with cream of mushroom or cream of celery soup.
Searing the pork chops before slow cooking adds extra depth of flavor and better texture but can be skipped for a quicker prep.
Adjust seasoning to taste, especially the salt if using low-sodium broth or soup.
Serve with a simple green salad or steamed vegetables for a complete meal.
