Ingredients:
4 bone-in pork loin chops (8 ounces each)
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 medium green pepper, chopped
1 medium red onion, chopped
3 garlic cloves, minced
1/3 cup dry red wine or chicken broth
2 cans (14-1/2 ounces each) fire-roasted diced tomatoes, undrained
1-1/2 teaspoons italian seasoning
hot cooked penne pasta
shredded parmesan cheese, optional
Directions:
1. Sprinkle pork chops with salt and pepper. Brown chops in oil in a large skillet. Remove and keep warm. Saute green pepper and onion in the same skillet until crisp-tender. Add garlic; cook 1 minute longer.
2. Add wine, stirring to loosen browned bits from pan. Bring to a boil; cook until liquid is almost evaporated. Add tomatoes and Italian seasoning. Cook and stir for 2-3 minutes or until sauce is slightly thickened.
3. Return chops to the skillet. Cover and simmer for 3-5 minutes or until a thermometer reads 145°. Let stand for 5 minutes before serving. Serve with pasta. Sprinkle with cheese if desired. Yield: 4 servings.
