Pork Chops with Peppers

There may not seem like a lot to this dish, but boy is it tasty.  Pork chops with vinegar peppers is an old Italian stand-by.  For a different variation on this dish you can home fry some potatoes and put them on top.

Serves 2

4 center cut pork chops
1/4 cup olive oil
6 sweet vinegar peppers
Salt & pepper to taste
1. Either on grill or in broiler,  cook pork chops until they are done the way you like them.
2. While chops are cooking, heat olive oil in saute pan over medium heat.
3. Tear peppers up into large pieces, add to pan and sautee for 3-4 minutes.
4. Drain oil and spoon peppers over dished out chops, season with salt and pepper and serve.




The Perfect Scoop
I must start this review off with an apology. There is no excuse for waiting until mid-August to post a review of The Perfect Scoop. If this is the first you are hearing of this excellent book on all things ice cream, then I have let over two months of prime ice cream making and eating time this summer slip through your grip.

Summer's Bounty: Tomatoes
Mid-July through August is sometimes referred to as the Dog Days of Summer, but for me they are something special, the Tomato Days of Summer.
