Tuscan Smothered Pork Chops

Golden pork chops disappear under a tomato-rich skillet sauce loaded with peppers, onions and celery. Tuscan garlic and a tomato-basil balsamic finish make it saucy enough to spoon over potatoes, and just bright enough to justify a piece of bread for the last drop.

Method
 

  1. Season pork with Ellbee's Tuscan Gourmet Garlic, salt and pepper. Heat Ellbee's Chef's Blend Extra Virgin Olive Oil in a deep skillet over medium-high heat and brown chops on both sides; transfer to a plate.
  2. Add bell pepper, onion and celery to the skillet. Cook until softened, scraping up the browned bits, then add tomatoes, stock and Ellbee's Tomato Basil Balsamic Vinegar.
  3. Return chops and any juices to the sauce. Cover partially and simmer gently until the pork is tender and reaches 145°F, 20 to 25 minutes.
  4. Spoon the vegetables and sauce over pork chops, scatter parsley on top and serve with potatoes, polenta or crusty bread.

Notes

Time: 55 min
Kitchen tip: Give the chops space when browning. Work in batches if needed so they sear instead of steaming.
