Time 1h25m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 teaspoon olive oil
2 cups sliced mushrooms
2 tablespoons olive oil
6 (3/4 inch thick) pork loin chops
2 cloves garlic, crushed
1 cup chopped onion
1 (14.5 ounce) can diced Italian tomatoes, undrained
1 teaspoon dried basil
½ teaspoon dried oregano
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
½ cup water, if necessary
1 large green bell pepper, cut in 6 pieces

Steps:

  • Heat 1 teaspoon olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Stir in mushrooms; cook and stir until mushrooms are tender, 5 to 7 minutes. Transfer the mushrooms to a bowl and set aside.
  • Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil in the skillet over medium heat. Add the pork chops, browning on both sides, 7 to 10 minutes. Place the pork chops on a plate, then drain all but 1 tablespoon of drippings from the skillet. Stir in the garlic and onion; cook and stir until the onion has softened and turned translucent, about 5 minutes.
  • Pour in the tomatoes, then season with basil, oregano, salt, and pepper. Transfer the pork chops back to the skillet; cover and simmer until the pork chops are tender and no longer pink in the center, about 45 minutes. Stir in some water if the mixture becomes too dry. Place the bell pepper on top of the pork, then add the reserved mushrooms. Continue to simmer until the bell pepper is tender, 5 to 10 minutes.

I have been making this recipe for more than 30 years. Children as well as adults love them. These juicy chops are covered with a basil-seasoned tomato sauce and melted cheese. They're so easy and so fast, too. Any cut of chop can be used...I like to use boneless.-Janene Christensen, Eureka, Missouri

Tips:

  • Choose high-quality pork chops that are at least 1 inch thick. You can use bone-in or boneless chops.
  • To create a flavorful marinade, combine olive oil, Italian herbs, garlic, and red pepper flakes. Let the pork chops marinate for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight.
  • When cooking the pork chops, sear them over medium-high heat in a large skillet until they are browned on both sides. Then, reduce the heat to medium-low and cook the chops for an additional 8-10 minutes per side, or until they reach an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • While the pork chops are cooking, make the Italian sauce. In a separate skillet, heat olive oil and sauté onions and garlic until softened. Then, add crushed tomatoes, Italian seasoning, and salt and pepper to taste. Bring to a simmer and cook for 15-20 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened.
  • To serve, spoon the Italian sauce over the cooked pork chops. Garnish with fresh parsley and grated Parmesan cheese.
