Pesto Pork Chops

























In a blender, combine 1 cup fresh basil leaves, ½ cup olive oil, ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese, ¼ cup chopped walnuts, and 4 cloves garlic to make pesto. Puree until smooth. Season to taste. Place ½ kilo pork chops on a roasting pan. Spread pesto over the pork chops. Bake in a 375˚ F oven until tender or cook in a turbo broiler. When half done, flip the pork chops, top with more pesto, and continue cooking until done. Serve with java rice and more pesto on the side.


TIP: If you don’t have the time to make pesto, simply use the bottled variety. The sauce is also good served over cooked pasta.
