Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 4 thick pork chops
  • 1 tbsp garlic minced
  • 1 tsp oregano
  • 2 tsp parsley
  • 1 tsp basil
  • 1/2 tsp onion powder
  • 1/2 tsp rosemary
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp ground black pepper
  • 2 14.5 oz cans stewed tomatoes

Method
 

  1. Preheat large skillet over medium heat. When hot, add olive oil to pan. Sear pork chops on each side approximately one to two minutes per side. 
  2. When pork chops are seared add garlic and allow to fry for 30 seconds before adding remaining ingredients. Fill one of the empty tomato cans halfway with water. Or about a 1/2 cup. Add water to pan as well. Mix slightly to combine seasonings into sauce. Cover, turn on low and simmer for 2 hours or until fork tender.
  3. Check on chops every 30 minutes. Stir and flip chops each time. Ensure there is enough liquid and nothing is sticking to the bottom of pan. Add 1/2 cup water if necessary. 

Notes

Could be made in slow cooker or pressure cooker. Instructions much the same. Sear meat. Add all ingredients to pot and cook until fork tender.
