• Put the flour on a plate. Season the pork with pepper, then dredge in the flour. Heat the olive oil in a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat; add the pork and cook, undisturbed, until golden on the bottom, 5 minutes. Add the sage to the skillet; flip the pork chops so they rest on top of the sage. Scatter the garlic, lemon slices and pepperoncini around the pork. Cook, undisturbed, until golden on the other side, about 5 more minutes.
• Add the tomatoes, chicken broth and 1/2 cup water to the skillet and reduce the heat to medium low. Simmer, flipping the pork halfway through, until the liquid is reduced by half and the meat is tender, about 15 minutes. Serve with the couscous; top with the parsley.

BONE-IN RIBEYE PORK CHOPS BRAISED, GLAZED AND FLAVORFUL

Steps:

• Liberally sprinkle chops with Tuscany season all around. Refrigerate covered for at least three hours. Can substitute with minced garlic, sage, rosemary and Kosher salt.
• Place chops in a high rimmed pan. Add the can of chicken broth, cover and place over high heat. When broth reduces by about half, flip chops over. Once broth evaporates, about 45 minutes, remove cover and brown chops on both sides. Add a small amount of olive oil to supplement fat if needed.
• Add wine. When nearly evaporated, a minute or two, glace chops on both sides and remove. Swirl some additional wine to deglaze the pan. Pour over chops and serve.
• Note: White wine is traditionally used with pork. I prefer the robust flavor of a hardier red wine. Chops are bold enough to handle red.

• Place the sliced onions over the sauerkraut and sprinkle with 1 tsp freshly ground black pepper.
• Arrange the pork chops on top of the onions, and pour in any collected juices.Sprinkle with salt, pepper and the garlic.
• Add the rest of the sauerkraut, sprinkle with pepper and pour over as much beer as you need to cover.
• Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer and cook one hour. The pot should never get completely dry.
• Note: I find 2 lbs sauerkraut to be enough, but if you have hearty eaters, you might want the larger quantity. I do not add additional salt.
