Braised Tuscan Pork Chops #Paleo and #GlutenFree

This past Christmas, my daughter gave me a couple of cookbooks and I have been slowly making recipes from them.  This particular one, Paleo Italian Cooking, has a few recipes that we’ve repeated simply because they’re flavorful and easy to make.

Each time we’ve made this recipe, the pork has been fork-tender and soaked up the flavors in the tomato-vegetable sauce.  In keeping with it being a paleo dish, you can serve it as it or over zucchini noodles. We often have it as is with a side of roasted vegetables (whatever I have on hand.) If you’re not following a paleo diet, this would be great over rice or your favorite pasta.

Ingredients

  • 4 thick pork chops bone in and trimmed of visible fat
  • ¼ cup olive oil divided
  • 1 can 14 oz fire-roasted tomatoes
  • 1 red diced
  • 1 medium carrot diced
  • 2 stalks celery diced
  • 1 small yellow onion diced
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • ¼ tsp dried red pepper flakes
  • ½ tsp dried thyme
  • ½ tsp dried basil
  • ½ cup chicken broth

Instructions

  • Season both sides of the pork chops with pepper and a little salt.
  • Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat with 1 or 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Be sure the pan you use can easily fit the 4 pork chops without crowding them. When skillet is heated, add the pork chops.
  • Brown the pork chops until both sides, about 5 minutes per side. Remove from pan and place on a plate, cover with foil and set aside.
  • Reduce the heat to medium and add another 1 to 2 tablespoons of the olive oil.
  • Saute the red peppers, carrots, celery, and onion for 3 minutes, or until softened. Add the garlic and let cook for one minute more. Then, stir in the can of fire-roasted tomatoes.
  • Season with salt and pepper, and add the red pepper flakes, thyme and basil. Add in the chicken broth and then mix to combine.
  • Return the pork chops to the pan and spoon some of the sauce over the tops of the chops.
  • Cover and reduce heat to low, simmer for 30 minutes, or until pork chops are cooked through and tender.

Braised Tuscan Pork Chops are delicious as is or over pasta!
