Pork Chops with Peppers and Onions


Pork chops with peppers and onions are the perfect combination of flavors and textures. The vegetables are quickly sauteed over high heat and the seasoned pork is seared and then finishes cooking in the oven. The result is crisp-tender vegetables and perfectly seasoned meat. This easy meal comes together so quickly and is delicious. It's easily multiplied so it's great for entertaining. Serve with a salad and crusty bread and you have the perfect meal.


Ingredients for Pork Chops with Peppers and Onions:


Pork Chops:

4-6 boneless pork chops, 2-1/2 pounds

2 tablespoons of olive oil

1 teaspoon kosher salt

1 teaspoon dried oregano

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

1/2 teaspoon dried onion

1/2 teaspoon dried garlic powder

1/2 teaspoon sweet paprika

1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper


Pepper and Onions:

1 large onion

1 pound sweet mini peppers

2 cloves garlic, minced

2 tablespoons fresh oregano

1 tablespoon olive oil

1/4 teaspoon kosher salt

1/8 black pepper


You will also need a pan or two and an instant thermometer - I have the Taylor Precision Thermometer. Click HERE for more information on it.


Time-Saving Tip: The spice blend can be made in advance.


Let's see what we need.


We're ready to cook.


Seed and quarter the peppers and halve and then slice the onion; set aside.


Saute the peppers and sliced onion in 3 tablespoons of oil over high heat; season with salt and pepper. Cook for about 2 minutes until peppers just start to get tender. Toss in the fresh oregano and then transfer the mixture to a dish.


Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Combine the seasoning mixture for the pork chops. Places the chops in a baggie and toss with all of the seasonings. Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in the same pan. Add the meat and cook over medium heat until the meat is golden brown; flip and brown the other side. Place the pan in the oven and continue cooking until an instant thermometer reaches 145 degrees. Do not overcook.


It's ready! Now just combine the vegetables and the meat and you have the most delicious meal. It's so easy to prepare and full of flavor that I know you'll be making this again and again.


Enjoy!
