Try Tuscan pork chops for a rustic Italian-inspired dish that's totally impressive yet ready in a flash.

Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 teaspoon seasoned pepper
  • 4 (1-inch-thick) boneless pork chops
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 3 to 4 garlic cloves, minced*
  • 1/3 cup balsamic vinegar
  • 1/3 cup chicken broth
  • 3 plum tomatoes, seeded and diced
  • 2 tablespoons capers
  • Garnish: fresh parsley sprigs

How to Make It

Step 1

Combine first 3 ingredients in a shallow dish; dredge pork chops in flour mixture.

Step 2

Cook pork chops in hot oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat 1 to 2 minutes on each side or until golden brown. Remove chops from skillet.

Step 3

Add garlic to skillet, and sauté 1 minute. Add vinegar and broth, stirring to loosen particles from bottom of skillet; stir in tomatoes and capers.

Step 4

Return pork chops to skillet; bring sauce to a boil. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer 4 to 5 minutes or until pork is done. Serve pork chops with tomato mixture. Garnish, if desired.

Not Great....

The bread on the pork chops ends up being to soft... the vinegar is a little bit too much for the recipe.. the capers are just like olives very bitter and sour. Definitely would not make this recipe again... I think you should deep fry a pork chop first and make the sauce separate. After your sauce is done with less vinegar and less capers then you should add it on top as a garnish for your pork chops...

Absolutely delicious

I will be making this again. I added a little basil to the flour mixture. I also fried the porks chops a little longer then it says and I simmered everything for 15 minutes instead of the 5 minutes. For side dishes I made roasted asparagus and Pasta with pesto sauce.  

Tastes like something from a restaurant.

This was delicious! I skipped the flour to avoid those extra carbs and it was still superb. Juicy pork chops with a fresh new flavor. Also fast. Will be adding this to the rotation.

I used balsamic vinegar and the tomatoes turned very dark brown. Also, the dredged flour mixture, after cooking the chops and putting them in with the tomato-vinegar-garlic mixture with a cover on the pan, mostly steamed or cooked right off the chops. So, my first attempt at this dish did not look anything like the highly styled photo shown, but these were fairly fast to make using common ingredients I always keep on hand, and they tasted very good.

The balsamic vinegar gives the dish a tart bite and the tomatoes give it a fresh take on the pork chops.

These are simply THE.WORLD'S.BEST.PORK.CHOPS!!!! This recipe is easy and so yummy! As a single person, I like recipes that re-heat well for multiple meals, and this recipe fits the bill. This is definitely a keeper and I'll make it on a routine basis.
