GREEK PORK CHOPS WITH ZUCCHINI AND FETA



Greek Pork Chops with Zucchini and Feta image

Thin-cut bone-in lean pork rib chops cook in minutes and offer a hearty, meaty richness that can be extra satisfying. A pantry spice blend of dried oregano, thyme, and paprika seasons the chops, and the browned bits left in the pan later flavor the zucchini as it sautes. Choose chops that don't have striations of fat in the meat; if they have a large fat cap, simply trim it off before cooking.

Time 30m

Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
1/2 teaspoon sweet paprika
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
4 1/2- to 3/4-inch-thick lean bone-in pork rib chops
1 tablespoon canola oil
2 medium zucchini, halved lengthwise and sliced crosswise into 1/4-inch-thick pieces
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh parsley (basil, mint, or oregano is great, too)
1 medium tomato, finely chopped
1 teaspoon olive oil
Juice of 1/2 lemon
1/4 cup finely crumbled feta cheese (about 2 ounces)

Steps:

  • To season and cook the pork chops: Stir together the oregano, thyme, paprika, salt, and pepper in a small bowl. Set the pork chops on a cutting board and season both sides of each chop with the spice blend.
  • Heat a large skillet over high heat for 1 minute. Add the canola oil, and once it shimmers, add the chops. Reduce the heat to medium-high and cook, without moving the chops, until they are nicely browned, 3 to 4 minutes. Flip the chops and cook on the other side until browned and the centers resist light pressure, 2 to 3 minutes more. Transfer to a plate and set aside.
  • To cook the zucchini: Add the zucchini to the skillet with the salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until the zucchini softens, 3 to 4 minutes. Stir in the herbs, then transfer the zucchini to a medium bowl. Stir in the tomato, olive oil, and lemon juice, then sprinkle with the feta cheese.
  • Divide the zucchini among 4 plates and serve with the pork chops.

Categories     main-dish

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 1/4 pounds Yukon Gold potatoes, cut into 1-inch cubes
5 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
4 boneless pork chops (3/4 inch thick; about 1 1/2 pounds)
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 1/2 cups halved cherry tomatoes
2 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
1/4 cup dry white wine
12 pitted kalamata olives, halved
1/4 teaspoon sugar
1/3 cup crumbled feta cheese
1/4 cup chopped fresh dill

Steps:

  • Put a baking sheet in the oven and preheat to 475 degrees F. Toss the potatoes with 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Spread out on the hot baking sheet and roast, flipping halfway through, until browned and tender, about 25 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, make 3 shallow cuts in the fat on the side of the pork chops to prevent curling. Rub the pork with 3/4 teaspoon oregano and season with salt and pepper. Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the pork and cook until just cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Remove to a large plate.
  • Add the tomatoes, garlic and remaining 1/4 teaspoon oregano to the skillet. Cook, stirring, until the tomatoes soften, about 2 minutes. Add the wine and cook until mostly dry, 1 to 2 minutes. Add 1/4 cup water and cook, lightly crushing the tomatoes, until slightly thickened, 1 to 2 minutes. Stir in the olives, sugar and any juices from the plate of pork; season with salt and pepper.
  • When the potatoes are done, sprinkle with the feta and let soften for a minute. Sprinkle with the dill and gently toss. Divide the potatoes and pork among plates. Spoon the tomato sauce over the pork and drizzle with the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil.
