My husband has started the Paleo Diet and we came across this recipe,because he cannot eat anything fried,no bbq, or anything with cheese. We usually aren't ones to try anything new either,but this turned out lovely. Tastey AND spicey! We would definetely recommend to others.

Whew! That's one spicy tomato sauce!! And I only used 1 TSP of crushed red pepper and no hot sauce since I was out. My husband and I love spicy foods but I'm glad I reduced the red pepper. Otherwise, it was very good. I made a few substitutions to use what I had on hand but no drastic changes. I used olive oil instead of vegetable oil and tomato sauce instead of tomato puree, and I used thin pork chops instead of thick pork chops. Overall, the dish had a great flavor but would be very spicy as written. However, it is an easy, spicy, healthy, quick one-dish meal that is only 4 weight watchers points. Next time I will cut back on the crushed red pepper and it will be a 5-star recipe!

Pretty darn good...the thing the wife and I agree upon is there was a lack of spice for the pork chops...we might tweak it a bit for next time...

YUMMY! We inhaled this dish. I used a can of tomato soup instead of puree (didn't have), no jalapeno (didn't have), and included two (2) fresh minced garlic cloves (using my Pampered Chef garlic press) and cooked on very, very low for a few hours in a cast iron skillet. This was an easy dish to make, the house smelled great - I will definitely make again. The green peppers and onions were a very great combination with the chops.

My husband and I loved this recipe. I blended 4-5 tomatoes, 2 jalapenos, 1/4 onion and several healthy shakes of tapatio, but im sure the recipe will change each time dependent on what I have on hand. I would use a can of mexican stewed tomatoes or Rotel Mexican recipe next time as well. I also browned the pork chops with salt and pepper on each side for a couple minutes before removing to sautee the onions and peppers.

Wow. Was spicy, not for the faint of heart or children. My husband (a long time hot sauce lover) absolutely loved this dish (as did I). I didn't have any bell pepper and I used 4 different hot sauces (Tapatio, Franks, Chalula, Tabasco). I added a Tbs of minced garlic to the onions when they were sauteing. I also added about 2 tsp of salt to the whole dish. I used 6 thinly sliced bone out Pork Loin Chops. Served it with Stuffing and Suddenly Salad, with Hawaian Sweet bread. Wonderful and will be making it again.

Too spicy even without the jalapeno pepper, which I didn't have. Yet pork chops themselves were bland. Definitely needs salt. Has potential, but can't recommend as is.

We made this using a lot of fresh, chopped tomato from our garden instead of using puree - we just let them cook down with the meat and the other ingredients. We used the dutch oven, which was the perfect pot for this recipe. Wonderful flavor from simple ingredients.
