ROASTED PORK CHOPS WITH TOMATOES, MUSHROOMS, AND GARLIC SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
• In a 9x13 inch baking dish, toss tomatoes, mushrooms, garlic, and olive oil with salt and pepper to taste. Mix lightly with hands to coat all ingredients with oil, and spread the tomato-mushroom mixture to the edges of the dish, leaving the center free for the pork chops.
• Combine 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, cumin, ground coriander, oregano, marjoram, thyme, rosemary, sage, basil, garlic powder, onion powder, ground paprika, sugar, and crushed red pepper in a bowl to make a spice rub.
• Sprinkle the pork chops with the spice rub, working the rub well into both sides of the meat. Place pork chops in the center of the baking dish, surrounded by the tomato and mushroom mixture.
• Roast in preheated oven until the pork is no longer pink in the center and mushrooms are tender, about 45 to 50 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of a chop should read 145 degrees F (63 degrees C). Transfer pork chops to a serving dish and top with roasted tomato-mushroom mixture and all pan juices to serve.

TOMATO BRAISED SICILIAN PORK CHOPS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 F
• Season the pork chops on each side with coarse sea salt and cracked black pepper. Add as much or little pepper as you like, but I always advise going a little heavier than you think on the salt because it never seems to be enough when it's cooked.
• Add 2 tablespoons of olive oil to a large ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Add the pork chops and sear on each side for 2 minutes.
• Transfer the pork chops to a tray while you start the tomato sauce.

• Add the hand-crushed tomatoes and half the basil to the pan and bring the sauce to a light boil.
• Add the pork chops back to the pan. The tomato should come close to covering the pork chops. It's okay if it does cover them.
• Cover the pan tightly with foil and bake for 2 hours and 15 minutes at 325 degrees.
• Reseason the sauce as needed and add the remainder of the basil to the sauce.*If the sauce is too thick add a little water. If the sauce is not thick enough you can let it simmer for another 20-30 minutes on the stovetop or back in the oven.
• Remove the finished pork chops from the pan and serve with pasta, rice or potatoes. Save the extra sauce, it's amazing!
