Another quick and easy recipe to fix. I used the balsamic vinegar because I like the flavor it gives food. My husband thought it would go good with a baked potatoe. TY Dave.

I made this for dinner last night and it turned out very well. I was a little dubious about the balsamic vinegar but it was a great touch. My husband liked it and thought it should be served with rice instead of noodles. Definitely one I wish use again. Thanks for posting it. Barb from Utah

This is so flavorful and easy! I used the balsamic option and added some minced onion that needed using. I also used boneless sirloin chops. The pork is amazingly tender and cover in a tomatoey slightly tangy sauce. The sauce was excellent on top of the roasted garlic couscous I served alongside and sweet oven roasted carrots accompianied the dish very well. This will be a staple in our house.

Excellent chops! I decided to give my grill a break. Used boneless cuts and served with Basmati rice.
