6 pork chops (1 to 1 1/2 inch thick)
1 c. uncooked rice
1 envelope onion soup mix
3 c. hot water

Brown pork chops. Spread rice in bottom of rectangular baking dish (9 x 13). Save 1 tablespoon of seasonings from onion soup mix and sprinkle remaining seasonings and bits of onion over rice.

Pour hot water over rice. Arrange browned chops on top of rice and sprinkle chops with reserved seasonings. Cover tightly with foil and bake at 350 degrees until tender, 45 minutes to 1 hour, depending on thickness of chops.

Remove foil and bake 10 minutes longer or until excess liquid evaporates. Serves 6.
