Tomato sauce seasoned with oregano, basil and garlic gives Italian flavor to tender chops. This is one of the few ways I will eat pork chops, relates Vickie Lowe of Lititz, Pennsylvania. Ingredients:
4 bone-in pork loin chops (1 inch thick) |
1/2 pound fresh mushrooms, sliced |
1 medium onion, chopped |
1 garlic clove, minced |
2 cans (8 ounces each) tomato sauce |
1 tablespoon lemon juice |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/2 teaspoon each dried oregano, basil and parsley flakes |
1/4 cup cornstarch |
1/4 cup cold water |
green pepper rings, optional |
Directions:
1. In a nonstick skillet, brown pork chops on both sides. In a 3-qt. slow cooker, combine the mushrooms, onion and garlic. Top with the pork chops.
2. In a bowl, combine the tomato sauce, lemon juice, salt, oregano, basil and parsley. Pour over pork. Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours or until meat is tender.Remove pork and keep warm. Transfer mushroom mixture to a saucepan.
3. In a small bowl, combine the cornstarch and water until smooth; add to saucepan. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. Serve over the pork chops.
4. Garnish with green pepper rings if desired. Yield: 4 servings.
