2 tablespoon olive oil
4 boneless pork chops
salt and pepper to taste
2 tablespoons minced garlic
2 cups canned chopped tomatoes with their juice
1 teaspoon dried oregano
pinch of crushed red pepper
pinch of salt
4 slices mozzarella
Heat the oil in a large skillet set over medium high heat. Rinse the pork chops and pat them dry with paper towels. Place them in the pan to cook, turning them once, until they are nicely browned on both sides (about 10 minutes). Trnasfer them to a plate and sprinkle them with salt and pepper.
Lower the heat to medium and add the garlic to the pan, cooking it until it is fragrant. Add the tomatoes, oregano, crushed red pepper and pinch of salt. bring the mixture to a simmer and let it cook for 15 minutes to thicken it slightly.
Return the pork to the pan to cook through, about 8 to 10 minutes for chops.
Place the mozzarella slices on top of the meat, then cover the pan and remove it from the heat. let it stand for a minute or so for the cheese to melt.
