Pork Sirloin Chops with Roast Garlic Paste

Pork Sirloin Chops with Roast Garlic Paste
From: SmartAleq

I took a couple of thick pork sirloin chops, seared them in a bit of bacon grease, then thickly spread a coat of roasted garlic paste all over the tops of them, sprinkled them with paprika and kosher salt, then distributed a bunch of thin sliced onions and mushrooms around them in the frying pan and baked it at 350 until the chops were almost tender, then took the bowl the paste had been in and dumped a bit of cheap red wine in it, stirring to get the rest of the paste incorporated in it, and introduced that into the onions and mushrooms, turned the oven off and let it all rest together for ten-fifteen minutes. The wine reduced into a sticky sauce, the pork was tender and flavorful and I steamed up a huge load of broccoli to go with, sprinkled with a bit of sharp white cheddar. It was delish!
