TOMATO SMOTHERED PORK STEAKS (OR CHOPS) FOR THE CROCK-POT

Steps:

• Cut each steak into 2 or 3 pieces and trim excess fat.
• Pour one can of tomatoes into the bottom of a 6-7qt Crockpot. Top with 1/3 of each of the ingredients, ending with a layer made from half the pork steak pieces.
• Make another layer of 1/3 of everything, ending with the rest of the pork steaks.
• Finish with the remaining ingredients.
• Cook on low for 6-8 hours.
• Remove pork steak pieces carefully (they will probably break up so tongs will work better than a fork).
• Use a slotted spoon to scoop out the veggies and serve them over pasta or rice.
• Top with Parmesan.
• Tip: If you chill the flavorful juices to remove the fat you'll have a delicious starter for soup.
• Note: I do not recommend using an extra-lean cut such as boneless pork loin for this. Extra lean meat tends to dry out in long cooking even when submerged in liquid this way.
• Note: This should be just as good made with beef chuck or chicken thighs.

STEWED TOMATO PORK CHOPS

Steps:

• Heat a large heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Season pork chops with salt and black pepper on both sides and add to skillet. Brown pork chops, about 4 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate and cover with aluminum foil.
• Add onions and garlic to the hot skillet. Cook and stir until softened but still crisp, about 5 minutes. Add tomatoes, capers and liquid, rosemary, red pepper flakes, oregano, and basil. Bring sauce to a simmer and cook about 5 minutes to meld flavors.
• Pour any accumulated juices from the plate with the pork chops into the sauce in the skillet and stir. Add cooked pork chops and cover with sauce. Simmer until warmed through, about 5 minutes more.
