Method

  • step 1

    Mix the oil with vinegar, mustard and garlic. Score the meat on both sides, season, then put into a dish. Pour over the balsamic mixture and leave to marinate for 5 mins.

  • step 2

    Heat a griddle pan until very hot. Lift the pork from the marinade, scraping off any garlic, then cook for 4 mins on each side. Remove the meat and keep warm. Pour the marinade into the pan with the olives, cook for 2 mins, then stir in the basil. Pour any juices from the pork into the pan, drizzle the sauce over the pork and serve with pasta.

Sadly pork overcooked at 4 mins, and hardly any liquid left to cover them with. No that brilliant on taste either.

Really good, easy recipe. Forgot to buy basil so threw in a ripe vine tomato which while quite different worked well with the olives.

I've used this reciepe a few times. Never with mash. Either salad or new potatoes and veg. Love it! Gives my pork steak something different.

I have made this recipe many times as it is a firm favourite in our house. I generally use pork steaks instead of chops and serve it with new potatoes, green beans and carrots.

Really tasty, I used black olives as didn't have any green and this worked, served with new potatoes and asparagus. Will definitely make again.
