   • In a bowl, mix together the rice, seasoning packet, and hot water until well combined. This forms the flavorful base for your casserole.

2. Preheat Oven:

   • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). While the oven is heating up, you can move on to the next steps.

3. Prepare Baking Dish:

   • Lightly grease an oblong baking dish to prevent sticking.

4. Layer Ingredients:

   • Spread the prepared rice mixture evenly on the bottom of the greased baking dish. This will be the base for your pork chops.

5. Season Pork Chops:

   • Sprinkle both sides of the pork chops with salt and pepper, ensuring they are evenly coated.

6. Arrange Pork Chops:

   • Place the seasoned pork chops on top of the rice mixture in the baking dish. This allows the flavors to meld together as the casserole cooks.

7. Cover and Bake:

   • Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil or a lid to seal in the moisture. Bake in the preheated oven for 1 hour. This slow cooking process ensures tender, juicy pork chops.

8. Prepare Sauce:

   • In a separate bowl, combine the cream of mushroom soup with milk. This creates a creamy, flavorful sauce that will enhance the dish.

9. Uncover and Pour Sauce:

   • After 1 hour of baking, remove the foil or lid from the baking dish. Carefully pour the prepared sauce over the pork chops and rice mixture, ensuring even coverage.

10. Bake Uncovered:

    • Return the baking dish to the oven, uncovered, and bake for an additional 15 minutes. This final step allows the sauce to thicken slightly and the flavors to meld together perfectly.

11. Serve and Enjoy:

    • Once fully cooked, remove the casserole from the oven and let it cool slightly before serving. Serve hot and enjoy the delicious flavors of this comforting Pork Chops Casserole!
