Ingredients
  

  • 8 boneless pork chops
  • 1 (8 oz) container sour cream dip see note 1
  • 1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese (6 oz)
  • 3 oz crispy French fried onions

Instructions
 

  • Preheat Oven:

    Set oven to 350°F (175°C) and allow it to preheat.
  • Arrange and Coat Chops:

    Arrange pork chops in a 9x13-inch baking dish in a single layer. Evenly coat each chop with sour cream dip.
  • Add Cheese and Onions:

    Distribute shredded cheddar over the sour cream layer, then scatter French fried onions on top.
  • Bake Until Done:

    Bake uncovered at 350°F (175°C) for 35–45 minutes, until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest portion reads at least 145°F (65°C) or your desired level of doneness (see note 2).

Notes

Note 1: Sour cream dip refers to a prepared dip such as French onion dip. Note 2: Cooking duration depends on chop thickness; adjust time accordingly.
