Made only 2 small & insignificant changes when preparing this ~ I used red bell peppers instead of the green, & I substituted lemon pepper for the usual S&P! What a great way to serve up pork chops! This recipe is certainly a keeper ~ Thanks for sharing it! [TEagged & made in Please Review My Recipe] -
This is a great and easy-to-make dinner meal. For my personal preference I used only 2 teaspoons of Italian seasoning. The sauce came out really tasty and had a nice tang from the worcestershire sauce. Next time I'm going to add a little tomato puree for a brighter color and I think a sprinkling of shaved parmesan cheese on top of each serving would add a nice flavor to this already delicious dish. Thanks for posting!

Great Recipe. But, I made it opposite. My porkchops are on the bottom seasoned then the rice and finally the sauce..I used tomato sauce and added diced tomatoes with chilies and of course water. Lots of garlic and seasoning on the sauce and green pepper...cover with tin foil on 350 for an hr or so...When the liquid is gone and the rice is cooked.. its done... so simple and never disappoints...love this recipe -
