GREEK-STYLE PORK CHOPS WITH ROASTED BELL PEPPER AND FETA

Greek-Style Pork Chops With Roasted Bell Pepper and Feta image

Since I do not measure when I make this recipe the amounts listed are about close to the amounts I use when I make this, feel free to adjust the amounts to suit taste, this recipe serves 2-3 people but may be doubled if desired. To make things easier just use the bottled roasted red peppers. This recipe takes little time to prepare, if you are a lover of Greek food, then you will enjoy this one!

In a bowl stir the first 6 ingredients together until well blended.
