4 tablespoons olive oil, divided |
1 lpound cherry or grape tomatoes (3 cups) |
1 garlic clove, smashed |
4 smoked pork chops (1 pound total) |

2 tablespoons green-olive paste |
3/4 teaspoon thyme leaves |
Directions:
1. Heat 3 tablespoons oil in a 10-inch heavy skillet over medium-high heat until it shimmers, then cook tomatoes and garlic, lightly pressing tomatoes occasionally, until tomatoes begin to burst, about 5 minutes.
2. While tomatoes cook, heat remaining tablespoon oil in a 12-inch heavy skillet over medium-high heat until it shimmers, then brown pork chops on both sides, about 4 minutes total.
