Sauté Pork with Tomatoes - tender and juicy pork chops with lots of tomatoes and garlic. So easy and perfect for busy weeknight dinner.
Last month, I made the Spicy Basil Beef Salad from the Cooking Light magazine and there is another recipe that I earmarked: Sauté Pork with Tomatoes.
I hardly ever make pork chops at home, and thought the recipe looks very delicious, colorful, and easy to prepare.
So I got myself some pork chops, some grape tomatoes, and made everything on my skillet.
It took only 15 minutes to make.
I love simple ingredients and like to prepare quick dinners so I don’t get stuck in the kitchen for too long.
This is an amazing recipe to make for your family, especially on busy weeknights.
The pork chops are tender and juicy, the seasonings and the tomatoes make them super delicious and they go well with a simple pasta or rice dish.
Enjoy!

Awww, thanks for trying this saute pork with tomatoes recipe. I am so glad you like it. :)
This looks so good! I have a love/hate relationship with cooked tomatoes, but I like that these still have their texture
That’s great! :)
Wow, this recipe looks super yummy! I can’t wait to try it myself, I’m already bookmarking this post to try it later =)
whether all types of tomatoes can be for this dish? if it is too acidic how to neutralize it? Thanks before
Yes you can. Just put less vinegar.
This has a Thai background, I think. Yes, the black vinegar ties the dish together and the sour from the vinegar and the tomatoes balances the sugar well. Straightforward, simple, and delicious. Having it again tonight.
Awesome Arthur.
