Description
This Pork Chops Scarpariello is a pork chop recipe with hot cherry peppers that compliment the chops in the best way.
Ingredients
Scale
- 5 bone-in pork chops
- 8-10 hot cherry peppers and 1/2 cup of the juice from the hot cherry peppers jar (or more if you like spicy)
- 8-10 sweet cherry peppers and 1/2 cup juice from the sweet cherry peppers jar
- 1-2 tablespoon of olive oil
- Salt and pepper, as desired
Instructions
- Pat chops dry with the paper towel and sprinkle them with salt and pepper.
- Heat your skillet to medium high and add the olive oil. When it's shimmering hot and not a moment before, add your chops. Sear on one side, without moving them at all, until they are nice and golden brown on the first side, about 4 minutes. Repeat on the other side.
- Lower the heat to medium low, throw in the hot and sweet cherry peppers along with the juice and cover for 20-30 minutes, until pork is done. Serve with rice!
Notes
- Use any variation of sweet and/or hot cherry peppers you wish.
- After browning, make sure the heat is as low as it can go and cover with a tight lid.
