Ingredients

  • Pre-Thawed Pork Chops (number depends on how many are being served)
  • Pasta (I tend to use fusilli)
  • Bell Pepper (I tend to use red)
  • Basil (preferably fresh)
  • Oregano (preferably fresh)
  • Garlic
  • Sugar
  • Salt
  • Black Pepper
  • Balsamic Vinegar
  • Olive Oil
  • Rum
  • Jarred Pasta Sauce (or tomato paste)
  • Salsa

Method

  • Firstly, heat a deep pan and add olive oil. Once oil is up to temperature, add chopped bell pepper, garlic, and a dash of salt. Begin boiling the pasta. Roast peppers until they begin to brown. Add a dash or two of sugar, balsamic vinegar, oregano, basil, and rum.
  • Once the mix has formed a glaze on the peppers, trim the fat from the pork chops and place them in this pan. Add black pepper and a dash more balsamic vinegar. Cook the chops until done through and add pasta sauce and salsa. Heat until boiling, simmer, and add strained pasta. Mix and serve.
