Baked Spicy Pork Loin Chops with Tomatoes

When it comes to making this dish, simply brown the pork chops in a frying pan as they will be cooked through in oven.  You may skip peeling tomato skins. Thick pork loin chops is preferably used to get the best results.  A ceramic baking tray is good to retain moist as a result that the pork meat will be juicier. If you’re in a rush, you can pan-fry the pork chops right away after spreading the marinade on them.
