Directions:

Prepare the Pork Chops:

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Season Pork Chops: In a small bowl, mix together the garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, dried oregano, salt, and pepper. Rub the pork chops with olive oil and coat them with the seasoning mixture.

Prepare the Cheesy Scalloped Potatoes:

  1. Layer Potatoes: In a greased 9×13 inch baking dish, layer half of the thinly sliced potatoes.
  2. Add Cheese and Cream: In a saucepan, heat the heavy cream over medium heat. Add the minced garlic, salt, and pepper. Once heated, pour half of the cream mixture over the potato layer. Sprinkle half of the shredded cheddar and Parmesan cheese on top.
  3. Repeat Layers: Add another layer of potatoes, pour the remaining cream mixture, and top with the rest of the cheese.
  4. Bake: Cover the baking dish with foil and bake in the preheated oven for 45 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until the top is golden and bubbly.
