Pork Chops with Feta, Olives, and Peppers Recipe



We love these pork chops because they are SOOOOO moist. The secret ingredient is the old stand by-Shake and Bake. Don't knock it. The stuff really works.

1 package Shake and Bake for pork
3 boneless center cut pork chops

1 Tbsp grated lemon rind
1 Tbsp fresh lemon juice
1 Tbsp fresh parsley or 1 1/2 tsp of dry parsley
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1 Tbsp olive oil
1 Tbsp fresh or 1/2 tsp dry oregano

1/2 cup of feta cheese, broken up
1/2 cup of olives, chopped fine (kalamata,black or your favorite)

Preheat oven to 400.
prepare pork with Shake and Bake, as per directions.
Place in 8x8 pan and bake uncovered for 25 minutes.

In the meantime, mix oil, rind, juice, and spices in a small prep bowl.

Spoon mixture over the pork chops. Back in the oven for 5 minutes

Combine feta cheese and olives. Spoon over pork chops, bake 5 to 10 more minutes (depending upon the thickness of the chops).

I like to serve this with rice pilaf.
