- If using baby potatoes, wash them and cut them in half (or leave them whole if they are small). If using regular potatoes, peel them (if desired) and cut them into bite-sized chunks.
- Arrange the potatoes around the pork chops in the crockpot.
3. Make the Sauce:
- In a small bowl, whisk together the ranch seasoning mix, cream of chicken soup, and chicken broth (or water). Add a pinch of salt and pepper to taste.
- Pour this sauce mixture over the pork chops and potatoes in the crockpot, ensuring everything is well coated.
4. Cook:
- Cover the crockpot and cook on low for 6-7 hours or on high for 3-4 hours. The pork chops should be tender, and the potatoes should be cooked through when pierced with a fork.
5. Serve:
- Once everything is cooked, check the seasoning and add more salt or pepper if necessary.
- Serve the pork chops and potatoes on a platter, spooning some of the sauce over the top.
- Garnish with chopped fresh parsley or green onions for a pop of color and added flavor, if desired.
Tips:
- Variations: You can add vegetables like carrots, onions, or even green beans to the crockpot to make it a more hearty, one-pot meal.
- Ranch Seasoning: If you don’t have a ranch seasoning packet, you can use homemade ranch seasoning by mixing together dried parsley, garlic powder, onion powder, dill, and salt.
- Make-Ahead: This recipe is great for prepping ahead. Simply assemble everything in the crockpot the night before and store it in the fridge. In the morning, just plug in the crockpot and let it cook while you go about your day.
