(from castro15’s recipe box)

Categories: Pork

Ingredients

  • 1/2 lb. broccoli rabe
  • 4 boneless pork chops
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp pepper
  • 1 tbsp. canola oil
  • 1/2 cup sliced roasted sweet red pepper
  • 4 oz. fresh mozzarella, sliced

Directions

  1. Preheat broiler. Trim 1/2-inch off ends of broccoli rabe; discard any coarse leaves.

  2. In a large saucepan, bring 4 cups of water to a boil. Add the broccoli rabe; cook, uncovered, 4-5 minutes or just until crisp-tender. Remove and immediately drop into ice water. Drain and pat dry.

  3. Sprinkle the pork chops with seasonings. In a broiler-safe skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add pork chops; cook 3-4 minutes on each side. Remove from heat.

  4. Layer chops with the red pepper, broccoli rabe and cheese. Broil 4-inches from heat 1-2 minutes or until cheese is melted.
