Here’s a simple and flavorful slow-cooker pork chop foil packet recipe—perfect for juicy, tender meat without much cleanup 🍴
🥩 Ingredients (2–3 servings)
- 2–4 boneless pork chops
- 1–2 cups sliced vegetables (potatoes, carrots, zucchini, or bell peppers)
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tsp paprika
- 1 tsp dried thyme or rosemary
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 2–3 tbsp chicken broth or water
- Aluminum foil
👩🍳 Instructions
1. Prepare foil packets
- Tear large pieces of aluminum foil (about 12×12 inches per packet)
- Drizzle a little olive oil in the center of each
2. Season the pork chops
- Rub pork chops with salt, pepper, paprika, and thyme/rosemary
- Spread minced garlic on top
3. Add vegetables
- Place a mix of sliced vegetables under and around the pork chops in the foil
- Drizzle 1–2 tsp olive oil and 1 tbsp broth over veggies for moisture
4. Seal packets
- Fold foil over the pork chops and vegetables to create a tight, sealed packet
5. Cook in slow cooker
- Place foil packets in the slow cooker
- Add ½ cup of water or broth to the bottom of the slow cooker (prevents burning)
- Cover and cook on low for 4–5 hours or high for 2–3 hours
6. Serve
- Carefully open foil packets (steam will be hot!)
- Serve pork chops with the vegetables from the packet and any juices
💡 Tips for Success
- Use boneless pork chops for even cooking
- Don’t overfill foil packets; steam needs space
- Optional: add a splash of soy sauce or balsamic vinegar for extra flavor
- Leftovers reheat well in the foil packets
If you want, I can make a quick version with a creamy sauce inside the foil packets—it’s like a restaurant-style pork chop dinner but in your slow cooker.
Do you want me to do that?
