"Nothing fancy here, just an easy meal to throw together on a weeknight. The rice acts as a built-in side dish, so all you need to do is add a vegetable and you're good to go. Prep time is frying time, cooking time is baking time."

It may not be fancy, but it surely is filling and full of flavor. We only had one can of reduced fat mushroom soup, yet it provided plenty of creamy sauce for the rice. The boneless chops (cut from a loin roast) sat nicely, adorned with their onion/lemon, atop the rice and were excellent, fork tender with just the right texture. Next time, I'll saute the lemon and onion while the pork browns and omit the salt. A colorful mix of frozen stir fry vegetables (carrots, red pepper, and sugar snap peas) was a great side dish. Thanks, Felix!
