Instructions
  1. Shred cabbage and place into salad spinner or colander in a mixing bowl and cover with cold water
  2. Soak cabbage for 20 minutes (while cooking pork), then rinse and strain cabbage
  3. Pat chops dry and shape to similar thickness with a mallet
  4. Cut 1 inch into fat side of chops, this will make cutting into bite-size slices easier later and keep the edges from curling in the pan
  5. Season chops with salt and pepper
  6. Pour some flour into a pie pan or plate and dredge the chops in it, shaking off excess flour
  7. Heat sauté pan over medium-high heat
  8. Add oil to pan when hot (I use vegetable oil for searing, higher smoke point than olive oil and not seed or soy oil but whatever works)
  9. When oil is heated sear the chops, about 3 minutes per side, then sear the edges
  10. Remove chops from pan and cut them into strips where you cut before
  11. Add chops back to sauté pan and add the sauce
  12. With a spoon, baste the chops for a few minutes, poke with the spoon, they should have a spongy give and bounce back where you poke. If a dent remains and the flesh doesn’t bounce back into shape the meat is a little rare – keep cooking
  13. Serve chops strips over cabbage with tomato quarters on the side
  14. Drizzle any remaining pan sauce over the chops and cabbage
