PORK CHOPS + PEPPERS

Pork chops pan seared then simmered in a peppery mustard beer sauce to make them extra tender and juicy. Full of flavor and perfectly cooked, these pork chops are a total hit!

INGREDIENTS – serves 2

2 thin cut pork chops
Salt + Pepper
2-3T olive oil

1/2 red onion, sliced (or regular onion)
1 poblano, sliced
1/2 red bell pepper, sliced
1 jalapeño, finely diced (seeds and ribs optional)
2-3 garlic cloves, minced
1/4t thyme
1/4t oregano
1/2c beer
1/2c broth or water
2T stone ground mustard (any kind but yellow will work)

INSTRUCTIONS

Bring a large skillet to medium to med-high heat. Sprinkle the pork chops with a little salt + pepper then sear in olive oil about 2 minutes on each side. Take the chops out of the pan and set aside. Saute the onion, poblano and bell pepper with a little salt + pepper for 1-2 minutes until just starting to get soft then stir in the jalapeño, garlic, thyme and oregano, cook for about a minute. Deglaze with beer then add broth. Stir to combine then simmer for 5 minutes. Nestle the pork chop in the sauce and simmer for another 5 minutes. Stir in mustard then serve.

ENJOY!

  1. This was SOOO good! It was a leap of faith. The first time I ever made it was for my Dad. Huge hit! I served it on rice since polenta is “something new.”
