Baked Boneless Pork Chops in Tomato Sauce

Step 1

Preheat oven to 400˚F (200˚C).

Step 2

Coat a frying pan with cooking spray and place over medium-high heat. If needed, trim the fat off the pork chops. Season pork chops with black pepper and sear for about 2 minutes on each side or until golden brown.

Step 3

Meanwhile, cut the onions into rings. Peel the garlic and slice into thin pieces.

Step 4

Remove the pork chops from the frying pan and transfer to a deep baking dish. Set aside.

Step 5

To the same pan, add onion rings and garlic and cook undisturbed over medium-high heat for about 1 minute on each side.

Step 6

Add canned diced tomatoes, bouillon cube, and spices to the pan and gently toss to combine. Reduce heat to medium and simmer for approximately 2 minutes.

Step 7

Pour this onion-tomato mixture over the pork chops. Add shredded mozzarella cheese evenly across the top.

Step 8

Bake pork chops in the preheated oven for 20 minutes or until pork chops are thoroughly cooked.

Step 9

Remove pork chops from the oven and let them rest in the baking pan for 5 minutes before serving.

Step 10

Take the pork chops out of the oven and let them rest in the pan for 5 minutes before serving.
