Ingredients

• 4 bone-in park chops, raw, fat trimmed (approximately 7 ounces each, uncooked)
• 2 teaspoons of Old Bay seasoning, divided
• 1 Tablespoon Oil (such as canola, olive oil, grape seed)
• 1 red bell pepper, chopped
• 1 onion, chopped
• 1 (10 ounce) can tomatoes with green chiles
• 1 (15 ounce) can black eyed peas, drained and rinsed
• 1 cup uncooked rice
• 2 cups chicken broth
• 1 Tablespoon Worcestershire sauce

Preparation

Step 1

Grab a large, deep skillet that has a lid. Turn skillet to medium high heat, heat oil.

Sprinkle the Old Bay seasoning on each side of the pork chops, reserving one teaspoon of seasoning for later.

Pan sear the chops, about 2-3 minutes on each side. You aren't looking for doneness, just a good color. When both sides are golden remove from skillet and set aside.

Add in chopped onion, bell pepper and let cook for about one minute. Next, add the can of tomatoes and green chiles, and black eyed peas, broth, rice, Worcestershire sauce, and last teaspoon of Old Bay and stir until combined. Top with pork chops.

Bring mixture to a simmer. Place lid on skillet and turn down to low. Let simmer about 25 minutes until all liquid is absorbed.
