This pork chops recipe can be served as it is, without any side dish, because it already includes the vegetables. It's fast easy to prepare if you take care to buy thin chops, be them with or without bones.
Ingredients:
- 4 pork chops
- 2 ounces Mozzarella cheese, diced
- 4 tablespoons butter, melted
- 4 fresh tomatoes, peeled, seeded, diced
- 2 garlic cloves, peeled, minced
- 1 onion, minced
- 1 pound zucchini, sliced
- 2 teaspoons dried basil
- Salt, pepper to taste
Cooking time: 25 minutes
Serves: 4
How to cook it:
Salt and pepper the chops on both sides. Melt the butter in a frying pan, then fry the chops about 3-4 minutes on each side. If the chops are thicker than 1/2 inch, you may need to cook them a bit more than 4 minutes. Peel, seed and dice the tomatoes. This is very easy if you put the tomatoes for 10-20 seconds in boiling water, then cut and remove the peel. Dice the Mozzarella cheese. Mix the tomato and cheese pieces in a bowl, then put them in the pan, on the chops. Cover the pan and cook the food for about one minute, or until you see the cheese melting. Then put the chops on a plate. Fry the minced garlic and onion for about two minutes, then add the zucchini slices, cover the pan and fry everything for 10 minutes. Add salt and pepper to taste. Serve the pork chops together with the vegetables. Top the food with dried basil.
