    List of Ingredients




    Peppercorn Sauce:
    3 tablespoons green peppercorns
    1/2 cup small diced onion
    1 teaspoon chopped garlic
    1/2 teaspoon red chile flakes
    1 ounce olive oil
    1/2 cup red wine vinegar
    1/2 cup Worcestershire sauce
    1 cup molasses
    2 tablespoons tomato paste
    2 quarts dark beef stock

    4 (20 ounce) double cut pork chops
    Salt and pepper

    2 ounces butter
    2 cups prepared frozen spatzle
    1 cup spinach chiffonade

    Recipe



    For the sauce: Saute peppercorns, onions, garlic, and chile in olive oil over medium heat for a few minutes. Add vinegar and Worcestershire and reduce by 1/2. Add molasses, tomato paste and beef stock. Simmer for 30 to 45 minutes to reduce by 1/3. Let cool and store until needed.

    Season each chop with salt and pepper and grill or broil, until desired doneness. Meanwhile, heat the butter in a saute pan until it starts to brown. Turn down heat to a simmer and add spatzle and spinach. Cook for a few minutes until the spatzle is warm. Serve with green peppercorn sauce.

    Serves 4.
