DIRECTIONS

Heat enough oil to just cover the bottom of a large skillet over medium high heat. Dredge the pork chops in flour, add to pan and brown well on both sides. Remove chops and set aside.
Add the onion and bell pepper and saute for 5 minutes, or until almost tender. Return pork chops to skillet and pour in the tomato sauce. Allow the sauce to start bubbling and then reduce heat to low.
Simmer for 30 minutes and season with garlic powder, salt and pepper to taste.

I agree with other reviewers that this is a little bland. I think that brining the chop prior to flouring it and cooking it would make it much juicier and give it more flavor. For brining I usually use a warm water solution of salt, brown sugar, 4-5 cloves of garlic (pressed or minced) and maybe a 1/2 a tablespoon of pepper. This adds a huge amount of flavor to the pork. I highly recommend it.

I have made this recipe for years but I add a can of Cream of Mushroom soup and serve it over rice. It's great made with chicken.

I modifed this slightly. Since I was already using the oven, after sauteeing the onions and peppers I transfered everything to an oven proof dish and baked it for about 30mins at 350 oC They came out really moist and my husbandand really loved them.
