Pork Cacciatore

For Valentine's Day Mike cooked up some crock pot pork cacciatore... it was absolutely delicious! He left the mushrooms out (due to my yucky allergy) and used a plain old jar of marinara sauce. Enjoy!

Ingredients

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 onion, sliced

4 boneless pork chops

1 (28 ounce) jar pasta sauce

1 (28 ounce) can diced tomatoes

1 green bell pepper, seeded and sliced into strips

1 (8 ounce) package fresh mushrooms, sliced

2 large cloves garlic, minced

1 teaspoon Italian seasoning

1/2 teaspoon dried basil

1/2 cup dry white wine

4 slices mozzarella cheese

Directions

In a large skillet, brown chops over medium-high heat. Transfer to slow cooker.

In the same pan, cook onion in oil over medium heat until browned. Stir in mushrooms and bell pepper, and cook until these vegetables are soft. Mix in pasta sauce, diced tomatoes, and white wine. Season with Italian seasoning, basil, and garlic. Pour over pork chops in slow cooker.

Cook on Low for 7 to 8 hours. To serve, place a slice of cheese over each chop, and cover with sauce.
