Pork Cacciatore
A new twist on an old recipe. This recipe is just as tasty and quicker to make than traditional chicken cacciatore.
  • Prep Time:
  • Cook Time:
  • Servings: 4

Ingredients

  • (4 (8 to 10 ounce) chops) Pork Loin Chops
  • (2 1/2 teaspoons salt) Salt
  • (2 teaspoons) Pepper
  • (1/2 cup) All-Purpose Flour
  • (1/4 cup) Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • (8 ounces) Cremini or White Mushrooms
  • (1 pepper) Red Bell Pepper, stemmed, seeded and chopped
  • (1 (1 cup)) Onion, chopped
  • (6 cloves) Garlic Cloves, sliced thin
  • (3 sprigs) Rosemary Sprigs
  • (1/2 teaspoon) Red Pepper Flakes
  • (1/2 cup) Dry White Wine
  • (1 1/2 cups) Crushed Tomatoes, canned
  • (2 tablespoons) Fresh Parsley, chopped

Directions

  1. Pat chops dry with paper towels.  Sprinkle with 2 teaspoons salt and pepper.  Place flour in a shallow dish.  Working with 1 chop at a time, dredge in flour, shaking off excess; transfer chops to a baking sheet.
  2. Heat oil in 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat until just smoking.  Add chops and cook until browned, 3 to 5 minutes per side.  Let excess oil drip from chops, then return chops to sheet.
  3. Add mushrooms, pepper, onion, garlic, rosemary sprigs, pepper flakes, and remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt to oil left in skillet.  Cook until vegetables are just softened, about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  4. Stir in wine and cook until nearly evaporated, 3 to 5 minutes.  Add tomatoes and bring to simmer.  Reduce heat to low and cook for 5 minutes.  Nestle chops into sauce and cook until chops register 140 degrees, about 10 minutes, flipping halfway through cooking.
  5. Transfer chops to platter.  Discard rosemary sprigs, then spoon sauce over chops.  Sprinkle with parsley and serve.
