PORK CHOPS ITALIANO



Pork Chops Italiano image

Flavorful, tender pork chops with Italian pizzazz. Great served over noodles.

Provided by lutzflcat

Categories     World Cuisine Recipes     European     Italian

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.

Tips:

  • Choose the right pork chops: Look for bone-in pork chops that are at least 1 inch thick. This will help ensure that they stay moist and juicy during cooking.
  • Season the pork chops well: Use a combination of salt, pepper, and other spices to flavor the pork chops. This will help them develop a delicious crust.
  • Cook the pork chops over medium heat: This will help prevent them from overcooking and becoming dry.
  • Use a meat thermometer to ensure that the pork chops are cooked to the desired doneness: The internal temperature of the pork chops should reach 145 degrees Fahrenheit for medium-rare, 155 degrees Fahrenheit for medium, and 165 degrees Fahrenheit for well-done.
  • Let the pork chops rest before serving: This will help the juices redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in more tender and flavorful pork chops.

Conclusion:

Tomato-topped Italian pork chops are a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a flavorful and satisfying meal that your family and friends will love. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy dinner recipe, give tomato-topped Italian pork chops a try. You won't be disappointed!
