Рецепт Baked Spicy Pork Loin Chops with Tomatoes
The first time I made this dish was on a Valentine’s Day. I’m not quite a romantic person, yet would love to dine out on special occasions. Sometimes, I just want to snug inside and don’t want to line in a long queue outside a restaurant. Simply cook a delicious meal that my family will enjoy, without standing too long in the kitchen. Here’s the dish we enjoyed on the day. The meat of pork loin chops was succulent and juicy, with so much flavours in them. It perfectly goes with any salad or a bowl of steamed rice. My daughter likes the tangy and hot flavours of it very much. I lost counts of how many times I made for her on request.

- Cook time: 60 mins
- Yield: 2 to 3 serves
- Ingredients:
- 4 pork thick loin chops
- 2 tomatoes
- 1 onion
- a thumb-sized butter
- oil, to taste
- Marinade:
- 2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
- 1 tsp ground black pepper powder
- 1 tsp cayenne pepper
- 1/2 Tbsp corn flour
- 1/2 Tbsp oil
- 3/4 tsp salt
Method:
Peel, deseed and dice the tomato. Dice the onion.
Mix all the marinade ingredients well. Use a teaspoon to spread evenly on both sides of the pork chops. Marinate for 1 hour.
Preheat oven to 200C / 395 F.
Use a frying pan, heat oil and melt butter over medium high heat. Fry pork chops on both sides until both sides are slightly brown. Arrange them on roasting tray.
Stir fry the onion until brown. Transfer on top of the pork chops. Sprinkle with diced tomatoes. Cover with foil. Bake in the preheated oven for an hour. Remove the foil and cook to reduce the liquid. Serve hot.
Notes：
When browning the surface of pork chops in a frying pan, you don't need to cook through them at this stage.
To get the best results, use a ceramic baking dish. It helps to retain moist in the meat.
Try to get thicker slices of pork loin chops. It’s better for roasting.
If you don’t have time to wait, you can bake the pork chops right after putting the marinade on them.
