Ingredients

  • • Baked Greek Pork Chops:
  • • 6 thick-cut bone-in pork loin chops
  • • 2 tablespoons Greek Seasoning
  • • 1 teaspoon salt
  • • 1 tablespoon coconut oil
  • • 1 cup pitted black olives
  • • 1 lemons, sliced
  • • 2 cups organic chicken broth
  • • Braised Red Cabbage with Bacon and Caraway Seeds:
  • • 1 tablespoon coconut oil
  • • 2 slices bacon
  • • 1/2 red onion, chopped
  • • 1/2 medium-size head red cabbage, shredded (about 2.5 lb)
  • • 1 teaspoon caraway seeds
  • • 1 bay leaf
  • • 1/4 cup organic chicken broth
  • • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
  • • 2 teaspoons raw honey
  • • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • • 1/4 teaspoon pepper

Directions

  1. For the pork chops:  Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Sprinkle pork with Greek seasoning and salt. Heat oil in a large skillet: add pork, and cook 2-3 minutes per side or until browned. Remove from skillet. Arrange pork in a 9-inch square baking dish rubbed with coconut oil; top with olives and lemon slices. Add broth, and cover with foil. Bake 25 to 30 minutes or until pork is done.
  2. For the braised cabbage: Heat oil in a a large, deep skillet over medium heat; add bacon, onion and garlic to hot oil. Cook, stirring often, 3 minutes. Combine broth, vinegar, honey, salt and pepper; add to cabbage mixture. (Cavegirl Tip: It wasn't on their official recipe, but I hit this with a quick squirt of Sriracha!) Cover, reduce heat to low and cook, stirring occasionally, 35-40 minutes or until liquid evaporates and cabbage is tender. Serve cabbage with pork chops.
