Preparation
Step 1
1. Heat a large frying pan over medium. When hot, lightly brush pan with oil, then add chops. Cook chops until springy when pressed, about 3 min per side. Transfer to a plate. Cover with foil. If pan is dry, add more oil. Add tomatoes, olives, onion and garlic to the pan. Cook until softened, 2 to 3 min, reducing heat if necessary. Spoon sauce over chops and sprinkle with parsley.
Wine Pairing:
With tomato sauce, serve an earthy wine that isn’t too fruity. This one has the elegance of an Old World wine for a modest price. Masi Tupungato Passo Doble, Argentina, $16.
Serving Tip:
Pair with a salad of tender greens (we used mâche) and a baguette to soak up the sauce.
